As the UNFCC COP30 convened in Belém, Brazil, we, Columban Missionaries, renew our commitment to climate justice rooted in Gospel values of nonviolence, dialogue, and respect for all life. We call on leaders to find courage and clarity needed to commit to an agreement that recognizes the fragility of this moment in earth history. We stand in solidarity together with representatives from faith, youth, local and Indigenous communities who carry the global cry for action that benefits people on the margins and the wounded earth.
Columban Society Leader, Fr. Andrei Paz, offers hope and inspiration in his 2025 Season of Creation message (read message below).
