US Catholics Send Support

Bishop Thomas Wenski Chairman of the Committee on International Policy of the United States Catholic Bishops’ Conference has recorded a special filmed message supporting the innovative Sound of Many Waters. We bring you an extract of Bishop Wenski’s words. His video message will form part of a special Sound of Many Waters film that is currently in production.

“I offer my support and solidarity as you launch your special environmental project Sounds of Many Waters."

“We all know the many environmental challenges we face in today’s world; from global climate change to water contamination, shortage and loss of creatures."

“As a Church we are especially concerned that the poor of the world carry a disproportionate burden of environmental degradation."

“We must engage in concrete acts of solidarity if we are to meet the challenge of the environment that knows no borders."

"I assure you of our prayers, blessings and best wishes for the great success of your environmental ministry Sound of Many Waters.”

Most Reverend Thomas Wenski, Bishop of Orlando, Florida, and Chairman of the Committee on International Policy of the United States Catholic Bishops’ Conference.
