Living our Faith
Call to Family, Community and Participation
Catholic social teaching inspires and guides how we are to live and work in the world. In this principle, Call to Family, Community and Participation, we remember that human beings are social by nature-we need each other. We, like the early disciples, are called to come together and grow as a community-whether that community is in our classroom, workplace or family.Amen, I say to You, whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me"
"En verdad os digo que en cuanto lo hicisteis a uno de estos hermanos míos,
aun a los más pequeños, a mí me lo hicisteis."
“¡El Ministerio Social de la Parroquia tiene sus raíces en la fe!”
Es Jesús quien nos llama a esta tarea. El ministerio social es una expresión de lo que somos y lo que creemos. Debe estar anclado en la Escritura y la enseñanza de la Iglesia. El Ministerio Social de la parroquia comienza en la llamada del evangelio a la conversión; para cambiar nuestros corazones y nuestras vidas; para seguir en el camino de la caridad, la justicia y la paz (Comunidades de Sal y Luz ...).
