Justice and Peace Committee
Our Mission Statement
Inspired by the vision of the Gospel and Catholic Social Teaching, the members of the Justice and Peace Committee at Our Lady of the Lake Parish seek to foster ways which promote the dignity of all persons and all creation and bring about justice and peace. Challenged by the example of Christ, the group strives to follow and to teach, by example, this foundational dimension of our Faith.
Just like our Tiny House Project we completed this summer in collaboration five congregations including Our Lady of the Lake, Assumption, St. Bridget, University Unitarian, and Wedgwood Presbyterian. This has been a wonderful partnership and example of our Mission Statement both in raising funds and in doing the building work.
