Social Justice Forums

Our Christian faith demands that we respond wherever we see injustice or encounter human suffering (Matthew 25:32-46). We can act effectively and appropriately only if we first try to understand all facets of complicated societal issues. For over five years, St. Brendan’s has sponsored a series of Forums on current topics of interest at which experts address the complexities of those issues and the work underway to bring about change.
