Book Description
“In the heart of this world, the Lord of life, who loves us so much, is always present. He does not abandon us, he does not leave us alone, for he has united himself definitively to our earth, and his love constantly impels us to find new ways forward. Praise be to him!” – Pope Francis, Laudato Si’ In his second encyclical, Laudato Si’: On the Care of Our Common Home, Pope Francis draws all Christians into a dialogue with every person on the planet about our common home. We as human beings are united by the concern for our planet, and every living thing that dwells on it, especially the poorest and most vulnerable. Pope Francis’ letter joins the body of the Church’s social and moral teaching, draws on the best scientific research, providing the foundation for “the ethical and spiritual itinerary that follows.” Laudato Si’ outlines: The current state of our “common home” The Gospel message as seen through creation The human causes of the ecological crisis Ecology and the common good Pope Francis’ call to action for each of us Our Sunday Visitor has included discussion questions, making it perfect for individual or group study, leading all Catholics and Christians into a deeper understanding of the importance of this teaching.

Book Description
This is the authorized provision for Communion by Extension, using the Common Worship liturgical material for the Church of England. Following permission from the Bishop, worshippers may receive communion ´by extension´ from a church where Holy Communion has been celebrated earlier. The practice has some similarities with the communion of the sick. The main differences concern the public nature of Communion by Extension, and the resulting need for care to be taken with the overall shape and content of the service. The booklet contains sections on: Notes to Public Worship with Communion by Extension General Notes Order One Order Two Guidelines issued by the House of Bishops A Form of Preparation General Rules of Regulating Authorized Forms of Service.

Book Description
While creation groans in deep pain, the centrality to Christian discipleship of care for the Earth has long been neglected. This call to action urges that creation care must become mainstreamed as part of day-to-day faith, rooted in a spritiuality that reads from the two books of God - the book of Nature and the written word of God.
