During the year, February 12, 2020 - February 12, 2021,
the 15th year since Sister Dorothy Stang was martyred in the Amazon forest,
we will proudly sing out in her name

“Let this be the time
When our care for creation becomes our vocation
When the heart of our labor promotes love of neighbor…”
-Lyrics from “Let This Be the Our Time” by Lori True
