Greetings!
Greetings!
This month we mark the celebration of two historic documents. On November 30, 1971--almost 40 years ago--Justice in the World was released by the World Synod of Bishops. Fifteen years later in 1986 and in the same month, November, the U.S. Bishops released Economic Justice For All.
I invite you to explore the always timely topic of economic justice on the EfJ web site. Go to the Resource Finder tab, then select Resource Map by Social Justice Topic, and click on "Economic Justice". You will discover a poverty quiz, a host of reflections, and many more activities.
