JustFAITH changes people… Those people change the world.
Empowering People of Faith to Develop a Passion and Thirst for Justice
Our Christian faith and Biblical tradition extend an extraordinary invitation to each of us and our faith
communities to become agents of God’s compassion and healing in a wounded world. The Good News of Christ
is both a comfort and a promise for the poor and, at the same time, a call to those of us who are not poor to be
linked with God’s vision of justice and reconciliation. The Christian tradition shines with examples of courage
and commitment of those who addressed themselves to the needs of our most desperate sisters and brothers.
JustFaith is an educational experience, a formation process and a spiritual journey. Over the course of
seven to eight months, participants gather weekly for prayer, discussion of books and videos, presentations by
guest speakers, and immersion experiences. The intent is to provide a tapestry of learning opportunities that
emphasize and enliven the remarkable justice commitment of people of faith. Participants are not only exposed
to a substantive course of study but also are afforded the privilege of becoming a small faith community with
other participants and sharing a journey of faith and compassion that is both life-giving and challenging.
Heather Payton and Linda Vosburgh will be facilitating a JustFaith class starting in September. There
will be an informational meeting August 16th at 9:15am. We will s how a short video about JustFaith, and have
materials available to look at. Please contact Heather or Linda for any additional information.
