Peace and Justice Commission

Mission Statement:

The Sacred Heart Peace and Justice Commission works to promote love of neighbor as taught and lived  by Jesus.

In collaboration with others, we advance  the Church's social teachings in our parish and discover ways to actively  live  them out.
 

In the words of Pope Francis:

"Jesus tells us what the ‘protocol’ is, on which we will be judged. It can be found in Matthew’s Gospel:

"I was hungry, I was thirsty, I was in prison, I was sick,
I was naked and you helped me, clothed me, visited me, took care of me."
(Matthew 25:42)

Whenever we do this to one of our brothers, we do this to Jesus. Caring for our neighbor; for those who are poor, who suffer in body and in soul, for those who are in need. This is  the touchstone."
