St. Francis de Sales Green Tips for a Sustainable Spring

Susan Vogt, a member of St. Francis de Sales Marianist parish in Cincinnati, a Lay Marianist from the Visitation Marianist State Community, and a member of the Integral Ecology Team of the Marianist Social Justice Collaborative, sends us this update.

On April 28, 2024, St. Francis de Sales parish hosted "Green Tips for the Spring," sponsored by the parish Green Team. The program consisted of placing environmental sustainability in a spiritual context, several short videos, food, community building, and a presentation on gardening tips. It also included free supplies like seed packets, plants, and lots of planting backgrounds and resources.
