In the heart of this world, the Lord of life, who loves us so much, is always present. He does not abandon us, he does not leave us alone, for he has united himself definitively to our earth, and his love constantly impels us to find new ways forward. Praise be to him! Pope Francis, Laudato Si In his second encyclical, Laudato Si : On Care of Our Common Home, Pope Francis draws all Christians into a dialogue with every person on the planet about our common home. We as human beings are united by the concern for our planet, and every living thing that dwells on it, especially the poorest and most vulnerable. Pope Francis letter joins the body of the Church's social and moral teaching, draws on the best scientific research, providing the foundation for the ethical and spiritual itinerary that follows. Laudato Si outlines:
<ul>
<li>The current state of our common home </li>
<li>The Gospel message as seen through creation</li>
<li>The human causes of the ecological crisis</li>
<li>Ecology and the common good</li>
<li>Pope Francis' call to action for each of us</li>
</ul>
