Social Justice Committee
The Social Justice committee is an umbrella committee for Development and Peace and Refugee Committee. We meet the third Wednesday of each month. New members are always welcome.
Please contact Zoria April by email (toya@pentnet.net) if you want to be part of this committee.
We focus on local, national and international issues such as: poverty, homelessness, hunger and human rights.
We deepen our own understanding of these issues and promote social action in our parish.
We take as our motto, "Whenever you did this for the least of these...you did it for me" Matthew 25:46
This D & P campaign was the first of our 2011-2016 program on ecological justice.
Sacred Heart Social Justice Committee is committed to helping the less fortunate by supporting and encouraging our parishioners to become more involved in social issues that surround us. We try to keep parishioners informed on the work of Development and Peace programs. We collaborate with other committees in our parish that focus on helping the most vulnerable people in our area ( Friendship Meals, St. Vincent de Paul Society, Magdalene House Society, Loaves and Fishes, and Safe Harbor Society) You are most welcome to join our organizing committee.
* Please give your support to our ANNUAL ADVENT APPEAL for SAFE HARBOUR SOCIETY by donating scarves, mittens, toiletries,etc. Boxes are available in the foyer before Mass.
* Attend our Development and Peace Pot Luck on Dec. 5 at Wedgewood Gardens Social Room - 5130 62 St. at 5:30 pm. Guest speaker Sara Michel will explain the great work that Development and Peace is doing throughout the world. Call parish office 403 346 2618 to register. Bring your favorite dish and enjoy some fellowship
