October 4, 2014 marks the 35th anniversary of St. Francis named as the Patron Saint of those who promote ecology by St. John Paul II.   As we approach the Feast of Saint Francis, the patron saint of those who promote ecology, let’s consider the role we play as stewards of God’s gifts.  How do our actions ensure that the poor have access to the universal goods of Creation?

The Catholic Climate Covenant Feast of Saint Francis program, Creating a Climate for Solidarity, will help your parish, college, community, or small study group explore how climate change affects the world’s poor.  Through this dynamic multi-media presentation, your group will dig in deeply on questions of Creation care and social justice.

You’ll have access to all the materials you need to make your program a success.  You’ll receive the multi-media show, a discussion guide, promotional posters, and other resources.  Our versions specific to parish, college, and youth audiences ensure that your materials suit your audience.

These resources are free of charge and will be available for download on September 1.

Please spread the word.  You can help promote the feast:
