Welcome, May 🌸
A month dedicated to Mary and a season of growth and care.
This month, the Holy Father invites us to pray that everyone might have enough to eat and to share what we have.
Even small acts in the garden can be part of that prayer.

This tiny “roly-poly” is doing important work beneath the surface.
Isopods build healthy soil, supporting the hidden web of life beneath our feet.
Blessing level: quietly cultivating grace.

Today we celebrate the feast of St. Catherine of Siena 🌿
“God has made you a gardener, to root out vice and plant virtue.”
We weed.
We plant.
We wait.
We begin again.
Sometimes the deepest growth happens beneath the surface.

@CatholicReview Love seeing Kelly Neale & Our Lady of Victory Parish featured here. Their garden is also part of Catholic Garden Network’s Garden Directory, and it’s encouraging to see more Catholic communities reimagining outdoor spaces in ways that care for creation and bring people together.

Fun to see Pope Leo enjoying the moment - even planting a tree can be joyful 🌱
ChurchPOP@Church_POP
Pope Leo is such a character. You could tell he was enjoying himself as he planted a tree in Hippo, cheerfully brushing off the dirt from his hands afterward. In Hippo, Saint Augustine battled heresies and defended the unity of the Church; today, Pope Leo prayed here for peace and unity.

@CCKCSJ Love seeing spinach, onions, and snap peas coming along! Wishing you a joyful and abundant growing season. 🌱
English
Spring has sprung at the Serve&Lift Center. Our raised beds are coming to life with spinach, snap peas, and some sprouting onions we planted. Not quite ready to harvest yet, but soon enough we'll have produce that is as locally grown as it can be.

Day 2 of the papal trip: Pope Leo arrived in Annaba, Algeria, and went straight to the archaeological site of ancient Hippo, where St. Augustine once served as bishop. Despite the rain, he ceremonially planted and watered an olive sapling among the ruins. 📸(CNS Photo/Lola Gomez)

Indiana’s five bishops are urging Catholics to adopt an integral “faith-filled” approach to the challenge of caring for both creation and the poor. catholicnewsagency.com/news/271137/in…

Grateful to see this thoughtful reflection from @USCatholic, which includes mention of Saint Isidore’s Garden and Catholic Garden Network.
Gardens can help land serve both neighbors and creation. 🌱

Lawn culture represents a mindset of control, consumption, and individualism. Catholic social teaching offers Catholics an alternative framework for rethinking the use of lawn space to protect the environment and nurture the flourishing of all creation. uscatholic.org/articles/20260…

75K+ flowers -- donated to the Vatican -- came from the Netherlands to decorate St. Peter’s Square for Easter. A 35-person volunteer team assembles the display in three days, and many plants are later replanted or donated.
