Ours is not a religion of spiritual escape from the material ~ that would be a negation of the incarnation that the Word became flesh and dwelt among us (Jn.1:14). This wonder and delight in the physical and tangible world into which our God gladly came, is to be seen in our sacramental ways of worship, for example, the water used for baptism, the bread and wine used in the Eucharist celebration and the oils used in administering the sacrament of confirmation.  

Out of love for neighbour and for our sustaining earth: live more simply and more responsibly ~ Re-use, Reduce & Recycle!

“We all see that today human beings can destroy the foundations of their existence, the earth. We cannot simply do what we want with this earth of ours, with what has been entrusted to us. We must respect the interior laws of creation, of this earth, learn these laws... and obey them, if we want to survive. Obedience to the voice of the earth is more important for our future happiness... than satisfying the desires of the moment.”

- Pope Benedict
