Environmental Reflections
Saint Days
|
|
In 1996, starting with Lectionary Year B, the MEESC launched
a multi-year project to complete reflections and comments on
the earth-centered aspects of the Lectionary readings. Work
on filling the gaps in this page will be undertaken each time
we approach the Saint's day; however, input is accepted at any
time. If you would like to contribute, please see the directions
at the end of this page.
