Thursday Book Club: Fratelli Tutti

Starting on November 19, the Thursday night book club will read Pope’s recent encyclical Fratelli Tutti, which means “All Brothers.” The Pope described it as his social encyclical and it examines important contemporary issues.

The full text of the encyclical can be found at http://www.vatican.va/content/francesco/en/encyclicals/documents/papa-francesco_20201003_enciclica-fratelli-tutti.html. A printed version is available for sale by the US Bishops. A short summary of the encyclical is available at https://www.vaticannews.va/en/pope/news/2020-10/fratelli-tutti-pope-fraternity-social-friendship-short-summary.html.

The discussions will begin on Thursday, November 19 at 7 PM and continue weekly.
