“Laudato si’, mi’ Signore” – “Praise be to you, my Lord”. Was there another Encyclical ever before in the history that had grabbed the world’s imagination and media attention? Laudato si’ – the encyclical titled after words of St Francis of Assisi  in his Canticle of the Creatures - urges the world to embark upon a revolutionary ethical rethink and change of heart in its relationship with the planet earth. “We are not God. The earth was here before us and it has been given to us.” Laudato si’ begins from where “The Joy fo the Gospel” ( Evangelii Gaudium ), the Apostolic Exhortation of Pope Francis, has stopped.

The encyclical of Pope Francis on the care of creation has 200 pages. For those who have no opportunity or time to read the full text, we have prepared a 'summary': "40 Days of Pilgrimage with Pope Francis to Care for our Common Home". It consists of 40 paragraphs, preceded and followed by an illustration, a short reflection and a prayer. Indeed, an appetizer to encourage reading!
