Our Mission
Nurtured by our rich liturgical life, the Social Justice Ministry seeks to put our faith into action by supporting a culture of listening, compassion, and servanthood. In concrete and tangible ways, we are all called to respond, within and beyond our parish community, to Christ’s call to love our neighbor through outreach, education, works of mercy, and social action.
Join us on the 2nd Monday of the month!
All are welcome, no commitment necessary!
7:00 PM at St. Catherine's (upstairs mezzanine)
