Listen to the Cry of the Earth
and the Cry of the Poor
The Diocese of Worcester will be celebrating The Season of Creation and the Feast of St Francis with a special Green Mass on October 3 at 1:30 at St John's Church, 44 Temple Street, Worcester. The liturgy has been carefully designed to bring to light the important theme of Catholic Social Teaching, that we are called to protect people and the planet, living our faith in relationship with all of God's creation.
Fr. Richard F. Reidy, Vicar General of the Diocese of Worcester, will be the primary celebrant for the Mass with other priests concelebrating.
After the Mass, we will have a talk by Claire Schaeffer-Duffy
