SUMMARY:A Virtual Catholic Theological Conference on Participation\, Dignity\, and Elections
DESCRIPTION:Catholic 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.

SUMMARY:Mass for the Care of Creation
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for The Mass for the Care of Creation (Missa pro custodia creationis) presided by Bishop Ligot. This Mass was developed during Pope Francis’ pontificate in response to requests for a liturgical way to celebrate the meaning of Laudato Si’ and to link liturgy with care for creation. It reflects Scripture\, the Church Fathers\, and Pope Francis’ vision for ecological responsibility. Followed by a parish recognition reception and light snacks.
