"I don't need to be connected to Catholic Charities to do parish social ministry. However, if I want to improve, to network, to be connected to training opportunities, to have access to formation, and to learn how to better integrate social ministry with other functions of the parish, I need Catholic Charities---to keep learning, to grow and to be challenged."
Pat Macy (featured speaker)
Parish Social Ministry (PSM) is the parish’s living witness to the Gospel through work for justice and service to poor and vulnerable people. It is Faith in Action!
Every time your parish works to:
- protect the life and dignity of the human person,
- meet an individual’s basic needs,
- advocate for social change to reduce poverty,
- create a partnership to improve the community,
you are doing Parish Social Ministry!!
Thank you for your enthusiastic particpation in our Parish Social Ministry Regional Training. The Office of Peace and Justice is available to come to your parish and provide training for staff, parish council, catechists, music ministers or anyone else you would like to involve in the work of integrating justice into the life of your parish community. We will work hand-in- hand with you, as you build a vision of education and engagement that will make it possible for everyone to respond to their baptismal call to justice!
