What is happening to our common home? Join the Archdiocesan Encyclical Walk on August 29, 2015 from 12:30 – 3:00 pm!
Trevor Herriott, Bert Pitzel, Michael Murphy, Marian Grady, Stephanie Molloy, Katherine Arbuthnott , and Joshua Campbell, your encyclical and ecological guides will meet with Father Glenn Zimmer, at the Qu’Appelle House of Prayer to begin the pilgrimage walk.
We will be reflecting on the state of the earth… our common home, as we walk through the Qu’Appelle valley.
The pilgrimage will last for two hours and have seven stops each with a short reflection on different themes of Pope Francis’ Letter on the Environment. Topics will also be suggested for those who wish to further the discusson along the way. An excellent preparation for this pilgrimage-walk will be to read Pope Francis’ Encyclical on the environment, Laudato Si (just google Holy See—official website to find it). You can also read the overview created by Bert Pitzel. See Blog https://archregina.sk.ca/blogs/19/7/2015/8/pope-francis%E2%80%99-encyclical-environment
