Fruit of the Earth and Work of Human Hands: Eucharist as Integral Ecology
4:30pm-5:45pm
Notre Dame
Cost: Free and open to the public
Dr. Emmanuel Katongole will highlight the connections between Eucharist and ecology with a view of making two interconnected claims, namely (1) that an adequate understanding of the Eucharist intensifies and shapes the Christian responsibility for the care of Our Common Home, and (2) that efforts for the care of our Common home are Eucharistic in more than a symbolic sense. They are truly a sacrament (sign and reality) of God’s love for the earth. Drawing from the work of Bethany Land Institute in Uganda, he will display the dynamic relationship between these two claims.
