Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, many parishes and schools are not able to meet in person. This pre-recorded webinar aims to assist communities and individuals seeking to use this year’s Feast of St. Francis program, “The Healing Power of Love in Action: Creation Care in a Time of Pandemic and Partisanship” in an online (or individual) format.
