The Papal Encyclical, Laudato Si, and its implications for Church and Society.
The Association of Catholics of Ireland (ACI) and the Association of Catholic Priests (ACP) are jointly sponsoring a lecture on the Papal Encyclical, Laudato Si. We regard the publication of this document as an event of enormous importance both for the Church and society, and that it is a particular responsibility for members of the Church to promote its message in every way we can.
Venue: Trinity College Chapel, Dublin
Date: Monday, June 29th.
Time: 8.00pm.
The speakers for the evening will be:
Fr. Sean McDonagh, Columban. Sean’s expertise in this whole area is internationally acknowledged. He was one of the chief advisors to the Vatican in the composition of the encyclical.
Dr. John Sweeney: John is retired professor of Geography at St. Patrick’s College, Maynooth. He is an expert on Climate Change, a member of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, and one of the contributors to the Irish Bishops Pastoral, Cry of the Earth (2009)
This event is open to everyone. At the conclusion of the lecture there will be time for questions and comments.
Admission is free. We wish to advise patrons that there is no parking facility in the college.
