Social Justice Committee

Social Justice Committee:

The Social Justice committee informs and educates parishioners on social justice issues. The committee is responsible for presenting the annual Development and Peace Action and Share Lent activities.  The Committee organizes the annual Christmas Sharing Project for the parish in conjunction with the two parish elementary schools – Sir Edgar Bauer School and St. Nicholas School. The committee is very involved in Refugee Sponsorship work.
 
Other activities vary from year to year depending on the interests of the committee members and the needs of the parish, our community and international visitors. Some past activities:

• The “Living Library & Lunch” presentations
• Guest speakers on a wide range of topics
• Social Justice Book Club
• Social Justice Movie Night
• Collection of Liturgical books and items for a seminary/university in Zimbabwe
• Annual Collection of Backpacks and School Supplies

 
The committee meets 5-6 times per year. New members are always welcome.
