Social Justice Ministry

Its that time of year!

Our Social Justice Ministry collects food for HopeAustin who helps feed students with food insecurity in Austin and the surrounding community. As you are grocery shopping please pick up:

1. Individual mac-n-cheese cups
2. Squeeze able apple sauce

Let's help HopeAustin ensure local children receive food items to keep them well-nourished as they start the new school year!

Donation bins are located in front of the church. The food drive runs through Labor Day weekend.

Thank you for your support.

"Catholic teaching calls us to serve those in need and to change the structures that deny people their dignity and rights as children of God. Service and action, charity and justice are complementary components of parish social ministry. Neither alone is sufficient; both are essential signs of the gospel at work. A parish serious about social ministry will offer opportunities to serve those in need and to advocate for justice and peace. These are not competing priorities, but two dimensions of the same fundamental mission to protect the life and dignity of the human person."

If you feel called to serve the poor, the unjust then this ministry is for you! Please join the Social Justice Ministry in person at our monthly meetings or at our upcoming events!
