Care for Our Common Home

What is OurNEST

Our Natural Environmental Stewardship Team (OurNEST) is focused on caring for all our brothers and sisters, throughout the world, by protecting and preserving the environment on which our lives and livelihood depend.  We are responding to Pope Francis’s call to “Care for Our Common Home,” as described in his recent encyclical Laudato Si’.  Our activities so far have included the blessing and planting of a tree for Earth Day 2015, the start of a recycling program at St. John XXIII, and hosting presentations on Laudato Si’.  We are also examining the causes of climate change, and identifying ways we can, as individuals and as a society, work to mitigate the risks that climate change poses.
