H. Em. Cardinal Cupich, after speaking with H. Em. Metropolitan Nathanael, has decided to postpone the August 31st Solemn Vespers for the World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation until Metropolitan Nathanael is available to attend. An announcement will be made as soon as an alternative date is set. In the spirit of ecumenism and building greater unity between the Roman Catholic Church and Greek Orthodox Church, may our two churches be a profound witness to our Christian mandate to care, protect and preserve God’s creation.
