The Peace and Justice Committee has been active at St. Vincent's parish for well over twenty years and has maintained a focus on social justice issues whose impact can be felt locally, nationally and internationally.  The committee strives to educate ourselves and the parish at large about matters of concern and to then formulate a response or action.  The committee is presently focused on a number of issues including:

• Fostering our relationship with our sister parish, San Juan de Limay, in Nicaragua
   

• Working with our local Habitat for Humanity affiliate
   

• Becoming better informed about various human rights issues.  

Monthly meetings are held on Friday evenings at the homes of committee members. Dates are set at the previous meeting and sent out via e-mail with the meeting minutes.  Anyone interested is welcome to attend our meetings and decide if they'd like to become involved.
