A second care for creation workshop has been delivered in Wigan and Leigh following deanery preparations during Laudato Si’ week in May.  

Pablo Guidi, archdiocesan Catholic Social Action Coordinator, joined forces with parishioners Linda Morris, Justine Silcock and Steve Atherton to educate and enthuse people to take up environmental action in their parishes.  

The workshop focused on the Laudato Si ’Encyclical and explored the nature of environment. It was attended by parishioners from Our Lady’s, Bryn; St. Catherine and All Saints, Golborne; St. Lewis, Croft and St Oswald and St Edmund, Ashton-in-Makerfield; St Josephs, Wrightington.

Pablo said: “The workshop was a great success. We trained the 15 parishioners, who will now go on and train other parishioners to care for our common home. So together, we can take up environmental action that will make a difference.”
