St. Veronica Parish’s Justice, Peace and Care of Creation Ministry has been evolving. Our mission is to advance God’s kingdom on earth through awareness, education, and guidance. We focus on the 7 principles of Catholic Social Teaching:
1) Dignity of humans
2) Option for the poor
3) Solidarity
4) Care of Creation
5) Dignity of work
6) Family and community participation
7) Rights and responsibilities
Each of these principles was featured in our Sunday bulletin. The JPCC Ministry hosted a “Supper and Substance” event which provided a group of parishioners an opportunity to consider challenging scenarios and how they related to Catholic social teaching. We also had a prayer service for world peace.
Surely more situations await our response!
