Establishing a baseline via a Laudato Si’ Goals Communal Reflective Process

A survey for sisters, associates, and colleagues in mission of SSND in North America

In lieu of the September SSND International Solidarity Reflection, all sisters, associates and colleagues in mission are invited to participate in the following survey. The purpose of the survey is to help SSND set a foundation for our community’s LSAP commitment to ecological conversion and becoming a Laudato Si’ congregation.

There are seven Laudato Si' Goals:

1 - The Cry of the Earth
2 - The Cry of the Poor
3 - Ecological Economics
4 - Adoption of Simple Lifestyles
5 - Ecological Education
6 - Ecological Spirituality
7 - Community engagement and participatory action

In this survey, we ask you about what you have been doing in these seven areas and what you hope to do in the future. The information we gather will provide the baseline to continue our efforts locally and globally and motivate us to live ever more simply and sustainably with all of creation.

We encourage you to embrace a contemplative approach to taking this survey. Prayer and reflection guidance and resources can be found here.

If you have any questions about the reflection process or this survey, please contact Sister Arlene Flaherty (for AM) at aflaherty@amssnd.org or Tim Dewane (for CP) at tdewane@ssndcp.org

May God be with us as we move into our commitment to be a Laudato Si' Congregation. Blessed Mother Theresa and Mother Caroline, pray for us.
