How can contemplation reawaken our love for the earth and one another? In April’s We Conspire series, we explore how contemplation invites kinship across difference and nurtures ecological justice. We reflect on Hildegard of Bingen’s green legacy, hear how the Franciscan Action Network embraces kinship with those on the margins, and learn how the Laudato Si’ Movement calls for ecological conversion through loving relationship with the natural world.
