Here on the pulse of this new day
You may have the grace to look up and out
And into your sister's eyes,
Into your brother's face, your country
And say simply
Very simply
With hope
Good morning.

— Maya Angelou (1928-2014), Poet, singer, memoirist, and civil rights activist

CCC's website has many useful resources in these categories: Laudato Si', Care for Creation, Environmental Justice, Homily Helps, Bulletin blurbs, Prayers and Worship, Reduce Your Carbon Footprint, Videos, & Webinars.
