Alison headshotThe papal encyclical released earlier this summer offers a unique opportunity to amplify and elevate voices of those responding to climate change.  And not a minute too soon …   In this interactive talk, Rev. Cornish will cover the main points of the encyclical that resonate with people of all faiths.
