Building is a  Moral Act:

Saving Money and the Common Good

Catholic Charities agencies throughout Louisiana, in cooperation with the Life and Justice Committee (Louisiana Conference of Catholic Bishops) and the Stewardship of the Environment Commission (Louisiana Interchurch Conference), are co-sponsoring the above one day workshop, funded by a $1k climate change grant from CCUSA.   The workshop will present ways that churches and non-profit agencies can reduce both our carbon footprint and budget expenses by implementing more sustainable construction, renovation and maintenance practices in all of the buildings that we build and operate. The workshop will be open to staff, church construction supervisors, pastors, parishioners and the general public.     Find out more...
