Clarification of Thought: The Economy of Francis
Monday November 18th - 6 PM
How do we create  "an alternative system that will overcome and eradicate the worldwide idolatry of money that structures the global economy and our lives"? The Economy of Francis begins laying the groundwork of how that might look based on what the authors "consider in tune with the radical nature of (Pope Francis's) teachings and the revolutionary nature of Christian faith." To prepare for the conversation we'll be reading two texts, The Economy of Francis document found here which is in direct conversation with Pope Francis' Message of the Holy Father Francis on The Occasion of The Fourth World Meeting of Popular Movements found here.

Clarification of Thought: The Economy of Francis

  Join us Monday November 18 at 6 PM as we discuss The Economy of Francis document ( found here ). The authors hope to "propose a vision that we consider in tune with the radical nature of [Pope Francis'] teachings and the revolutionary nature of Christian faith. We also want to collaborate in creating and demonstrating alternative experiences of living and working that allow us to make use of the goods of nature in ways that respond, not to the logic of the god money, but to our people’s need to live well." You might also want to check out the Message from Pope Francis on the Occasion of the Fourth World Meeting of Popular Movements ( found here ) in preparation for the discussion. No time for reading? Join us anyway!
