Join the Sisters and other Franciscans For Earth for a free screening and discussion of the documentary Choosing Earth; Choosing Life, which explores the speed, depth and magnitude of our growing planetary meta crisis, and the opportunity we have to meet this crisis consciously – with eyes and hearts wide open. 

Register today for this free opportunity!

Through a broad, whole-systems perspective, the film examines key challenges (climate change, inequities, species extinction, overconsumption, and more) and explores the deeper transformation being called forth from humanity. Woven throughout are stories from around the world illustrating both heart-breaking impacts and inspiring resilience. Engaging with this paradox—an unfolding global crisis paired with the opportunity to awaken to and serve the well-being of all of life—is the work of our lifetimes.

The Franciscan Sisters of Our Lady of Perpetual Help created a Franciscans For Earth (FFE) movement many years ago. Our goal is to educate, advocate, and collaborate on behalf of Our Common Home and all its inhabitants.
