The Enlarged General Council (EGC) - 20-25 September 2021
All is Interconnected - Life and Mission from the Perspective of Integral Ecology
As a global community of religious women we are committed to listening deeply as God speaks to us through every encounter – with our neighbour, with the earth, with the entire cosmos. Each person has a part to play in caring for our common home and its future. Together we recognise the gifts and respond to the challenges which face us as we deepen our commitment to an Integral Ecology. All is sacred, and all is interconnected.
