Mercy Ministry: Best Practices for Reaching Out to a Wounded Worldis a daylong workshop meant to help parishes and schools more effectively engage in respect life and social justice ministries.    Saturday, October 10, 2015 8:30 am - 3:00 pm St. Charles Borromeo, Sicklerville, NJ Cost: $10.00. Breakfast and lunch included. Registration required. Learn more and register online at www.camdendiocese.org/mercyministry The gathering is meant to help parishes and schools start or deepen their commitment to respect life and social justice ministries. It'll be a practical day and provide you with tools you can use with your own ministry context. Three main elements to the day: 1. Keynote address by incredible writer/editor Kerry Weber, author of Mercy in the City: How to Feed the Hungry, Give Drink to the Thirsty, Visit the Imprisoned, and Keep Your Day Job. 2. A display hall featuring at least 12 community social service organizations that your parish/school could connect with.   3. Two rounds of educational workshops. The gathering is being called "Mercy Ministry" because it's inspired by the upcoming Jubilee Year of Mercy, which Pope Francis announced a few months ago. The Jubilee is set to begin in December. As the Holy Father is calling us to recommit ourselves and our faith communities to acting with mercy, especially reaching out to those living on society's margins, this theme is timely! The day is for anyone with a heart for our faith's call to protect human life and promote social justice! More specifically, the gathering is for: Respect Life and Social Justice volunteers at parishes or schools, whether working already or aspiring to get started Directors of Religious Education Youth/Campus Ministers Pastoral Associates Clergy and religious Register here.  Learn more here.
