SOCIAL ACTION
LEADERSHIP TEAM
(SALT)
ABOUT
In response to our baptismal call to share in the mission of Jesus Christ, we strive to empower our parishes to develop a greater awareness of and participation in the social dimension of the Church. To this end, we work in solidarity on behalf of the poor and vulnerable to bring about a more just, hope-filled and compassionate society. To achieve these ends, we work toward these immediate goals:
-
to broaden awareness of all the dimensions of Catholic Social teaching through specific educational programs, activities and announcements,
-
to provide direct service to individuals, families or groups in need, especially those whose need is the result of structural injustice, and
-
to engage in and promote activities directed toward change of an unjust social problem.
SALT Meetings occur the fourth Monday of the month; anyone interested in social justice is invited to join.
