Laudato Si Week - 24th May - 31st May, 2025

Laudato Si’ is an encyclical letter written by Pope Francis in 2015, which focuses on the environment and the impact of human activities on our planet. The letter urges everyone to take care of the Earth, our common home, and stresses the interconnectedness of everything in our world, including social and economic factors.

Laudato Si’ Week 2025 will be celebrated 24th May - 31st May, to mark the 10th anniversary of Pope Francis’ landmark encyclical. This global celebration will unite Catholics to rejoice in the progress we have made in bringing Laudato Si’ to life. Laudato Si’ highlights the importance of Catholic Social Teachings in shaping our response to environmental issues, emphasizing the need to prioritize the well-being of people and the planet in all our actions and decisions.

The theme for Laudato Si’ in 2025 is “Peace with Creation”. This theme is especially significant as 2025 marks both the Jubilee Year and the 10th anniversary of Pope Francis’s encyclical Laudato Si’.

Laudato Si’ deepens Catholic Social Teaching by explicitly connecting care for creation with core principles such as human dignity, the common good, solidarity, subsidiarity and a preferential option for the poor, insisting that ecological responsibility and social justice are inseparable and essential for the flourishing of both humanity and the planet.
