Laudato Si ... praise be to you, my Lord Cartoon

Not only does St Francis of Assisi encourage us to take care of nature, but so does Pope Francis in his letter written to every person on the planet, asking us all to protect the earth. The following short cartoon shares the main messages from Pope Francis' letter ... After watching it, we'd like to hear from anyone who is doing something to respond to Pope Francis' call.


Did you know?
Did you know that the Pope's letters and all papal documents are given a Latin title based on the first few words of the document.  So Pope Francis' letter is called Laudato Si' which is taken from the words of a song (canticle) by St Francis Assisi “LAUDATO SI’, mi’ Signore” – “Praise be to you, my Lord”.
