Mary Southard CSJ – Ministry of the Arts* 2025 *
10th Anniversary of Laudato Si’ on Care of the Planet and Integral Ecology and 5th Anniversary of Fratelli Tutti on Solidarity and Integral Human Development. Laudate Deum – A Last Call for the Planet – BOOK LAUNCH at the Laudato Si’ Research Institute, Oxford, 17 June 2025. Pro Custodia Creationis For the Care of Creation. Pope Leo, 9 July 2025 – Contemplative gaze? – What about action? – Is anyone listening? Is anyone acting?
PATRIARCHY is a deeply ingrained gender ideology. There can be no integral human development as long as religious patriarchy lurks in the collective unconscious.
For 1.4B Catholics, 1 November 2025 will mark the 75th Anniversary of the dogma of the ASSUMPTION of the Virgin Mary. This would be a good time to transcend priestly patriarchy.
