Protecting Creation: How Faith Communities Mobilize for the Environment

Tuesday, December 08, 2015 at 12:00 to 01:30 PM

Pope Francis' encyclical has raised awareness of the role of faith leaders in calling for a range of environmental reforms. Three Maryland organizations that support activism in faith communities will share their work with us.
