Attention: Leaders in Ministry and Catechesis with High School Age Youth in Dioceses, Parishes and Catholic High Schools
Young people today long for a way to make a difference in the world. They live at a critical time in the history of the world. The impacts of climate change are real and are taking their toll on the earth and its people....
... Catholic youth can be empowered to draw on our tradition and the Spirit to confront the threat of climate change with creativity, reflection, learning, and action.
The Catholic Coalition on Climate change is partnering with The Center for Ministry Development, to help capture this energy. We are providing six learning sessions on climate change for Catholic youth in school and parish settings. These sessions are grounded in Scripture, Catholic social teaching, and provide hope in the face of climate change. They use multi-media, prayer, hands-on activities, simulations, games, quizzes, art and music. The sessions will help Catholic youth learn that their faith has a unique way of addressing climate change. They will discover that their Catholic faith considers the moral dimensions of human activity affecting the earth and understand it from the perspective of those most impacted by it: the poor and vulnerable.
These resources will be provided free of charge to dioceses, parishes and Catholic high schools. READ MORE.
