En faveur d’oeco Églises pour l’environnement

The Diocese of Lausanne, Geneva, and Fribourg will hold a diocesan collection to fund ecological projects through the Episcopal Ecology Council. The collection follows the teachings of Pope Francis and Pope Leo XIV regarding integral ecology, which connects spirituality, environmental respect, social justice, and care for the vulnerable.

The funds will support two specific projects. The first is the creation of a Laudato si’ grant to encourage local environmental initiatives, specifically those led by or involving young people. The second project involves developing a liturgical guide to help parishes integrate the role of creation into prayer and connect praise to God with environmental care during celebrations and pastoral life.
