Justice and Peace

  

Mission

The Justice and Peace of St. John the Evangelist Catholic Community will be a witness of Christ's love and teachings by working for justice for all. The Commission will provide educational opportunities which build understanding of social justice issues and promote community action to eliminate inequities within our society. The commission will support the charitable works undertaken by parish groups.

Members meet monthly to discuss Catholic Social Teaching and its meaning for our parish.

We have a lot of fun, too! Contact Jerry Barney at 777-6433, or jbarney@stjohnwc.org to visit a meeting or join the group.
