The True Treasures of the Church: An Introduction to Catholic Social Teaching Two-Part Series in English | April 24 & May 1 | 7-8:30pm In this two-part series, Deacon Larry will be providing an introduction to Catholic Social Teaching focusing on the importance of working in those ministries of justice and peace. We will explore the background and development of social teaching and justice as provided in the Holy Scriptures and in the documents of the Church showing that social justice is not a concept developed during Vatican II but has its roots as far back as Genesis. We will discuss sin and its social dimension, especially its impact on those suffering or in need. We will look at the seven themes of Catholic Social Teaching and how we, as Christ’s disciples, can work as citizens of the kingdom of heaven through participating in justice and mercy ministries and in community action. We will show that through our loving relationships with each other, especially those on the margins, we not only build a more just world but also deepen our relationship with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. For questions, please contact Suzanne C. at 678-960-0056 or email suzanne@popfb.org.
