We are EcoPhilly
A Creation Care Network in the Catholic Church of Philadelphia
A Message from the Most Reverend Nelson J. Pérez, D.D.
Archbishop of Philadelphia
“In 2015, Pope Francis issued Laudato Si as a universal call for each of us to embrace personal responsibility for the care of God’s creation in the natural world around us. We all share a personal and societal duty to heed the Holy Father’s call.
I am grateful to this team for developing ecophilly.org inspired by Laudato Si, which provides information about the many threats to God’s creation and useful tips on how we can do our part to protect and to preserve this precious gift. Please engage with these efforts to care for God’s creation."
About EcoPhilly
Our Mission
In the spirit of Laudato Si', EcoPhilly educates, equips, and supports creation care teams throughout the Catholic Church of Philadelphia to encourage ecological conversion, sustainable lifestyle changes, and public policies that respond to the cry of the earth and the cry of the poor.
