Comments/Details: The Holy Father calls us to live out our Christian duty to see the face of Jesus in our neighbors and to recognize everyone we meet as a brother or sister. In his third encyclical, Fratelli Tutti, further reflects on a topic of great importance: HUMAN SOLIDARITY AND FRIENDSHIP. THIS 4-WEEK LENTEN PRESENTATION & DISCUSSION WILL EXPLORE POPE FRANCIS’: • Ideals and ways that we can build a more just world through personal relationships, social life, and institutions • Concrete actions to restore the world and overcome the ills generated by the Pandemic crisis The encyclical will examine methods that will guide us in how to engage friends, family, and communities in discussing difficult topics that often divide us: • Ways our own perceptions, personal interests, and cultural norms impact who we see as neighbors • Why they are worthy of our concern, love, and engagement • Practical actions in our personal lives and families in response to the call to build a more just post-pandemic world
