“THE vision has to become action” – Brisbane Archbishop Mark Coleridge said, holding the Laudato Si’ Action Plan 2024-2026 in his hand at its launch at the Francis Rush Centre today.

He said there had been “so much talk” from politicians and decision makers, but “talk is not enough”.

“We have to listen to the cries of the earth and the cries of the poor,” he said, and this “listening will lead to action”.

The Laudato Si’ Action Plan was composed by voices from all agencies of the Brisbane archdiocese and leaders were present for the launch from Brisbane Catholic Education, Centacare, Archdiocesan Services, Evangelisation Brisbane and the Office of Legal, Governance and Risk.
