Ecological Spirituality: Praising God with and through Creation

  • Holy Trinity Church Westfield, NJ 07090 (map)

Presenter: Sr. Theresa Rickard, OP. DMin

 May 4, Thursday, 7:30- 8:30 pm

Holy Trinity Parish Center (Westfield, NJ)

 In this presentation we will explore the notion of two books of God’s Word: Scripture and Creation. “Nature is a magnificent book in which God speaks to us and grants us a glimpse of God’s infinite beauty and greatness” (Laudato Si, par. 12). Eco-spirituality is grounded in the truth that God is the Creator and Source of all life, human and non-human alike. We are part of an interrelated web of life. Eco-spirituality calls us into communion with and care for creation.
