31st Annual Archdiocesan Social Ministry Convocation

"Peace, Poverty, and Mother Earth"

Saturday — March 6, 2010
8:15 am - 3:00 pm
Seton Keough High School

Our well-received program included prayer, a keynote by a faith-filled presenter with wide experience, and a rich variety of workshops.

Information is being updated and will be available by March 12.

These parishioners from Holy Trinity, St. Bernadette, Our Lady of the Fields, and St. Francis Xavier learn and share during the Parish Social Ministry course.

How can we help you “grow” your social justice and outreach ministry?

We’re available to talk with you about our educational and spiritual opportunities to help move your faith into action. Whether you are staff or a volunteer, a youth or elder, a catechist or involved in adult education, we welcome the chance to work with you.

"From the time you came down here and talked at weekend Masses, our parish has been bubbling over with people interested in getting involved.” - Ed Kirk, Our Lady of the Fields

Are you…

• on the outreach/peace & justice committee?
• on the pastoral council?
• a catechist?
• on a parish staff?
• a parishioner interested in social justice?

Not listed here? Never fear, we work with a wide range of parish folks. After all, social justice is the work of every baptized Christian.

The mission of Catholic Charities' Parish Social Ministry is to work with parishes to foster their social justice and outreach ministry, educates parishioners to serve those who are poor and vulnerable through both charity and justice, and provides opportunities for the spiritual development of individuals in this ministry. Grounded in this belief, we work with Catholic parishes to develop and foster their social justice and outreach ministry. This means that we are a resource for support, guidance and information on a variety of topics and possibilities for your parish’s social ministry. We offer workshops, retreat days and educational sessions on Catholic Social Teaching and social concerns topics.

How can we help you?
