Monthly Speaker - Sr. Nadine McGuinness

Laudato Si'

Sister Nadine McGuinness will speak on the timeliness for people of faith, for the Church, for concerned people around the world:  of the encyclical, Laudato Si’.  Using a powerpoint slide show, she will enable participants to identify specifically from each part of the document where different “important principals, teachings, and exhortations” are to be found. She will seek to enable participants to read and respond to the Encyclical as Pope Francis has invited.
