JPIC

The St. Mary’s JPIC Team is working to understand the many problems in need of healing in our communities and our world. The ministry’s goal is summarized in our mission statement:

We, the Justice, Peace and Integrity of Creation (JPIC) Ministry, are guided by our passion for sustainability and justice for the earth and its inhabitants.
We address current institutions, systems and beliefs that are the root causes of harm to people and our planet.
We educate ourselves and others and act to achieve the world we envision.

Since JPIC is a foundation of the Franciscan Friars beliefs, we have an excellent resource for ideas, information and support from the Franciscan Holy Name Province and the tools that they have on the Holy Name Province (HNP) website at HNP.

The Team has begun the education, networking and advocacy process for ourselves and all interested parishioners. We welcome all to join us in our efforts, no matter what your age, talents and availability might be. Working together and sharing our experiences and ideas will enable us to expand the scope of our efforts.

Please look for our periodic bulletin articles and social media posts to see our current focus. As we move forward, we will keep you informed about meetings, special events and actions that we are taking. We invite you to join the JPIC team. Please email us at [email protected] if you have any questions.
