Laudato Sì Week: Pope appeals
for care of Creation
Preparing to celebrate “Laudato Sì” Week Pope Francis
underscores the importance of caring for our Common Home in this time marked by
the Covid-19 Pandemic.
By Vatican News
Addressing the faithful after the recitation of the Regina
Caeli prayer on Sunday, Pope Francis reminded them that we are entering the
“Laudato Sì” Week that unfolds until next Sunday and that marks the 5th anniversary
of the publication of the Encyclical.
He said that “in this time marked by the pandemic we are
more aware of the importance of caring for our common home,” and he invited
everyone to think about and undertake “a shared commitment to help build and
strengthen constructive attitudes aimed at caring for Creation.”
Laudato Si’ Week honours the fifth anniversary of Pope
Francis’ Encyclical on care for our common home. The theme of the week is
“everything is connected.”
This week, from 16 to 24 May, launches a year-long journey
of transformation promoted by the Dicastery for Promoting Integral Huma
Development, “as we grow through the crisis of the current moment by praying,
reflecting, and preparing together for a better world to come tomorrow.”
Following Pope Francis’ invitation to join Laudato Si’ Week,
Christians everywhere are invited to reflect and take for action in the spirit
of the Encyclical.
