FROM OUR EDITORS—May 21, 2023 – Ascension of the Lord/7th Sunday of Easter

This week, Pope Francis is inviting us to celebrate Laudato Si´ Week. We observe the eighth anniversary since the promulgation of his landmark encyclical On Care for Our Common Home (Laudato Si´), which focuses on the environment. Pope Francis invites us to reflect, pray, and recognize that we need one another and must work together to achieve a better future.

Laudato Si´ Week 2023 will be celebrated May 21–28 with the film “The Letter: A Message for Our Earth.” This global celebration will unite Catholics in rejoicing in the progress we have made in bringing Laudato Si´ to life. It will also show how representatives of the poor, indigenous peoples, youth, and nature who are featured in “The Letter” are doing so.

We are all interconnected. We must work together to build a better future for the world that God entrusted to us.
