Eucharist and Ecology: Pope Francis’s Liturgical Theology of Caring for Our Common Home (Online; Partner Event)
April 9 @ 10:00 pm – 11:00 pm EDT
Free
Hosted by the Franciscan School of Theology
How does the Eucharist shape the way we care for creation? In this online lecture, Christopher O’Brien, PhD, explores Pope Francis’s vision of the deep relationship between Eucharist and ecology—drawing especially from Laudato Si’ and Desiderio Desideravi. Dr. O’Brien will also offer a brief reflection on Pope Leo and the newly released “Mass for the Care of Creation” (July 2025), highlighting how liturgical life forms us for ecological conversion.
The lecture will be recorded and sent to all registrants, and will also be posted on FST’s YouTube channel.
