Sunday, August 23rd: A Discussion of Magnifica

Humanitas. Addressed to "all Christians and to all men and women of

goodwill", Pope Leo XIV's recent pastoral letter Magnifica Humanitas

(The Greatness of Humanity) is not so much about artificial intelligence

and technology as it is a profound reflection on what it means to be

human in an age increasingly shaped by machines and algorithms. Leo argues that the human

person must always remain the measure of technology and not the other way around. Join us at

9:00 for what should be an interesting discussion of the proliferation of social media, the rise of

AI, and how our lives are affected by modern technology. A brief summary of the encyclical will

be provided. All are welcome.

There will be no Clergy Coffee Hour on August 30th & September 6th (Labor Day weekend)

but will resume on September 13th.
