Creation Series – “Catholic Social Teaching and How We Show Care for Creation”
September 25 @ 7:00 pm - 8:15 pm
Monday, September 25 at 7 p.m. | St. Theresa Church, 1300 Bridge Street, New Cumberland
“Catholic Social Teaching and How We Show Care for Creation” presented by Father Matthew Cannon
This presentation will summarize Catholic social teaching and its seven guiding principles. At the heart of this teaching is the Eucharist, Jesus Himself, as He guides us to create community and unity through the Church and the world. Please join us at St. Theresa’s in New Cumberland in the Little Flower Social Hall or through zoom.
Fr. Cannon grew up in Lancaster, the oldest of three brothers to his parents, Bruce and Barbara. In June, he became an uncle to a little girl named Maya. Fr. Cannon was ordained to the priesthood in 2019, after which, he was assigned to Holy Name of Jesus Church in Harrisburg and served there for three years as parochial vicar. He is currently in his second year as the parochial vicar of St. Theresa of the Infant Jesus and as a chaplain at Trinity High School.
Since childhood, Fr. Cannon has enjoyed being outside, especially hiking and camping. During the Covid lockdown, he spent a good amount of time going to different parks and nature areas, giving him a greater appreciation and respect for God’s creation.
