Our baptism calls us to hear and proclaim the Gospels;
to celebrate the sacraments and deepen the life of grace within
ourselves and to serve the needs of others in the Church,
in the community and throughout the world. In a
special way this vocation calls us to promote and define
the dignity of each human person. The Peace and
Social Justice Commission has a threefold purpose:
1. Help people understand and act upon
the conviction that peace and social justice is an
essential element of the Gospel that flows from the meaning
of the Eucharist.
2. Help people see that the work of
peace and social justice is the work of the whole parish.
3. Help people see that the actions of
peace and social justice must take place locally,
nationally, and world wide.
The Commission collaborates with the other Commissions
whenever possible in implementing programs
