Foundress of the Society of the Sacred Heart

I am the true vine
and my Father is the vinedresser.
Every branch in me that bears no fruit
he cuts away,
and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes
to make it bear even more.

Integrity of Creation Working Group

The most recent scientific evidence (see Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change – IPCC – report; www.ipcc.ch ) indicates that climate change, very likely caused by human activity, is endangering all life-supporting ecosystems.  The Integrity of Creation working group would like to facilitate a deeper appreciation of the centrality of the integrity of creation in evangelization today.

As a first step, we would like to build up a data-base on work being done by religious institutes across the world. This would be a very important resource in encouraging others to take initiatives to care for creation. We propose to make this information widely available via email and the web. We are also interested in sharing and developing ecological educational material suitable for our membership.
