This Saint Patrick's Day, consider going green in a more meaningful way.
Pray
Find prayers and inspiration in our Lenten Reflection Guide inspired by Laudato Si'. The guide features reflections from missioners, prayers, fasts, and actions based on the weeks' Sunday readings and the goals of Laudato Si.
Study
Maryknoll Sisters were involved in the planning and filing of shareholder proposals for bank fossil fuel divestment as we reported in the latest edition of NewsNotes. You may find that you own shares in large banks and therefore have a proxy vote to give towards those proposals. Additionally, be sure to check out the resources by Maryknoll Affiliates covering the seven Laudato Si' goals with worksheets, slides, guides, and prayers.
Act
On Tuesday, March 21st, the Third Act is hosting rallies in cities across the United States to pressure major banks to divest from fossil fuels. In particular, rallies will focus on Bank of America, Citibank, Chase, and Wells Fargo. Find out if there is an event near you and share the information with others!
