SUMMARY:Celebrating the Season of Creation
DESCRIPTION:The Season of Creation runs from September 1 – October 4\, beginning with the World Day of Prayer for the Care for Creation.  \nAs we enter this season\, Pope Leo XIV invites us “to contemplate the gift of life and to cherish the earth that sustains it.”  In his Message for the World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation\, the Holy Father focuses on the impact of war on humanity and our common home and calls us to seek peace and healing in our world. \nThe USCCB’s Environmental Justice Program offers resources for the Season of Creation to help your community celebrate\, pray\, and act for change\, including the new Mass for the Care of Creation recently approved by the Holy See for use in English and Spanish in the United States. \nLearn more about the Season of Creation | USCCB

SUMMARY:Faithful Citizenship - A Virtual Catholic Theological Conference
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday September 16th & Thursday September 17th – 4pm-6:30pm PT\nFeaturing:\nArchbishop John C. Wester of the Diocese of Santa Fe\nDr. Maria J. Stephan of Horizons Project\nCatholic teaching does not baptize any particular model of democracy.  For decades\, however\, Catholic teaching has embraced democratic governance as the best way of institutionalizing the core values at the heart of Catholic teaching: human dignity\, religious freedom\, shared public life\, and the participation of all in the civic sphere. \nThis Catholic embrace of democratic governance leads the Church to encourage citizens to participate fully in electoral processes\, speak out for fair and transparent elections\, and call people to respect electoral outcomes. \nThis webinar brings responsible voices of Catholic ecclesial leaders and scholars to bear on the upcoming US elections. By understanding the current moment within a worldwide context and offering practical tools for promoting fair elections\, the webinar will empower Catholic leaders—homilists\, liturgical ministers\, teachers\, as well as bishops\, priests\, religious\, and deacons—to speak faithfully and prayerfully into the polarization surrounding the upcoming elections. \nPanel Topics Include:\n\nThe Church in a Global Context of Fragile Democracies: Brazil\, Philippines\, Hungary\, Guatemala & the US\nThe Church’s Evolving Relationship to Democracy: From Rejection to Embrace to Continued Imagination of New Models\nTruth through Noise: Media\, AI and the Struggle for Practical Wisdom Grounded in the Faith\nThe Challenge of Catholic Homiletics & Leadership Amid Polarization: Empowering Parish\, School and Apostolic Leaders to be both Prophetic and Reconciling.\nVoter Support as Pastoral Practice- practical strategies to help youth & marginalized communities exercise their call to participation.\nMinistering amidst a Renewed Crisis of Electoral Participation: The repeal of voting rights\, new targeting of immigrants and impact on Catholic communities.\n \n\nEvent Web – Registration here.
