Let us join Pope Francis in praising God for the gift of our COMMON HOME...

Join the ECO-MARCH on October 4, 2015

28/09/2015

ECO-WALK is our concrete response to Pope Francis' invitation to care for our common home which is the main theme of a national conference on integrity of creation, human rights and climate justice at Asilo de San Vicente de Paul. This resulted to the formation of Ecological Justice Inter-Faith Movement (ECOJIM).

As you very well know, the Holy Father Pope Francis has issued an encyclical “Laudato Si” to encourage all of us to care for our common home – Mother Earth. This coming October 4, 2015, Feast of St. Francis, ECOJIM together with various religious groups will hold an ECO-WALK to dramatize its call for ecological justice. Participants will be coming from four assembly points representing the four elements (Earth, Wind, Water and Fire) and will later converge at the Quezon Memorial Circle.

The assembly will begin at 6am with the celebration of the Holy Mass and will march to QMC by 8am. A brief program until 12noon will be held at the Amphitheater of QMC.

We would like to invite you and your group to join us in our march for ecological justice. Let us make this as our way of expressing our gratitude to the Holy Father for Laudato Si and for visiting the Philippines when we ourselves have suffered the effect of climate change due to Typhoon Yolanda.

The details of the program will be relayed to you by one of our contact persons. For inquiries and confirmation of attendance, please call (02) 373-2973 or email us at [email protected].
