Laudato Si' Week
May 17 - 24, 2026
From hope to action -
What is one thing YOU can do?
Laudato Si’ Week 2026 invites us to move from hope to action. Hope is not passive; it is lived and shared through daily choices, community life, prayer, and concrete acts of care. This year reminds us that ecological conversion grows step by step—through relationships restored, creation protected, and communities strengthened. The next chapter of Laudato Si’ begins with us, wherever we are.
These seven goals provide guidance on urgent and immediate actions each one of us can take in the care of our common home. “All of us can cooperate as instruments of God for the care of creation, each according to his or her own culture, experience, involvements and talents” (Laudato Si’ 14)
Seven Goals
Response to the Cry of the Earth
Evangelical Economics
Adoptions of Sustainable Lifestyles
Ecological Education
Ecological Spirituality
Community Resilience and Empowerment
Response to the Cry of the Poor

Thank you to our wonderful team of nurses who tend to the needs of our sisters - taking them to appointments, sitting with them with the doctors, hospital visits, ER, shopping and so much more. May God bless them for their generosity, time and patient care.
