The Duquesne University, Spiritan University in Pittsburgh, USA, has endowed an annual scholarly conference on the Integrity of Creation. The conference celebrates the Spiritan Mission of the University. The second annual conference is on Sep. 28-29, 2016. The event focuses on Protecting our Common Home, reflecting Pope Francis’ appeal to all people to meet “the urgent challenge to protect our common home” (Laudato Si’, 13). The presentations will be streamed live. Chika Onyejiuwa (Executive Secretary) and Jude Nnorom (a member of the Executive in Rome) will participate in one of the panels to highlight the activities of AEFJN.
