Quotes

  • I have come to believe, that in our relationship with creation we are called to evoke and affirm our interconnectedness with the rest of the world. This is what I would call the ecumenical imperative of care for creation. This perception of interconnectedness reminds us that the earth unites us all, before and beyond any doctrinal, political, racial or other differences.
