"They shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks; nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more." Isaiah 2:3-4 RSV BUT HOW???

On the JustFaith journey you can come to some resolution to this MOST difficult question. JustFaith is an intensive program based on Catholic Social Teaching for people interested in learning how to live a more compassionate life in our modern world. JustFaith offers an opportunity for parishioners to experience a spiritual journey into compassion. Most of us long to be a generous and compassionate people. However, the opportunities to explore this tradition in a deliberate and engaging way have largely not been available. JustFaith provides a lively and challenging format to read, discuss, pray, experience and be formed by the our justice tradition that changes lives, inspires faithful witness, and transforms the world through love and service. Our Catholic faith and biblical tradition extend an extraordinary invitation to each of us and to our faith communities to become agents of God’s compassion and healing in a wounded world. Working with Catholic Charities, Catholic Campaign for Human Development, and Catholic Relief Services, JustFaith is now offered in hundreds of parishes across the country. Here at Blessed Sacrament we are in our 2nd year of facilitating JustFaith. A new group begins formation in the spring with sessions starting in early September and running to May.
