[Michael Medas]

SAVE THE DATE:  29 March 2022, 7:00PM, Student Center (W20) 3rd Floor Mezzanine Lounge

Are there moral implications to action or inaction on climate change?  Does the integrity of the human person require awareness and consideration of how life decisions impact an environment shared by all?  Are there objective moral principles that shed light on how to respond to climate change?  These and further questions connected to climate change and leading a full dynamic life will be considered in a lecture by Daniel Horan, OFM, PhD.

Fr Daniel P. Horan, OFM, PhD, is the Director of the Center for Spirituality and Professor of Philosophy, Religious Studies, and Theology at Saint Mary's College in Notre Dame, IN. He previously held the Duns Scotus Chair of Spirituality at Catholic Theological Union in Chicago. He is a columnist for the National Catholic Reporter, and the author of more than a dozen books. Additionally, he is the author of hundreds of popular and scholarly articles; is a frequent lecturer and retreat director around the United States and abroad; and has previously taught at Siena College, St. Bonaventure University, Catholic Theological Union, Durham University, and in the School of Theology and Ministry of Boston College.

Blessings and peace,

Fr Michael
