“Future generations will never forgive us if we miss the opportunity to protect our common home. We have inherited a garden; we must not leave a desert for our children.” Joint statement from Pope Francis, the Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew and Archbishop Justin Welby of Canterbury.
After the summer we’ve had here in Ireland, we don’t have to imagine burnt earth, dry and cracked soil, desert and depleted resources of water. If we were lukewarm about ‘Care for our Common Home’ or cynical about ‘Laudate Si’ we have an opportunity to revisit those views by immersing ourselves in this celebration for the Season of Creation.
