Justice and Outreach Commission
Updated on: July 12th, 2009PURPOSE
The Justice and Outreach Commission exists to promote works of justice and outreach (charity), both within and outside the parish. These ministries enable parishioners to live their faith in the world by understanding and acting on the social dimension of the Gospel in their every day lives. Guardian Angels strives to continually challenge its members to serve those in need and to advocate for justice and peace. Works of charity, justice and pastoral care are encouraged and supported through adequate staffing (salaried/volunteer) and inclusion in the parish budget.
