Catholic Social Ministry Gathering - February 9-14, 2007

"Bringing Good News to a Broken World: Overcoming Fear with God's Love" is the theme of the 2007 Catholic Social Ministry Gathering in Washington, DC on February 9-14, 2007.

The Catholic Social Ministry Gathering is the annual meeting of social justice ministry leaders from national Catholic organizations and dioceses throughout the nation. The meeting includes prayer and worship, challenging speakers, and social ministry strategy sessions. In addition, participants receive detailed briefings on priority peace and justice issues especially as they affect the poor and vulnerable. A highlight of the meeting involves bringing a common Catholic message on these issues to our Senators and Representatives on Capitol Hill.

Attending for the Diocese of San Jose will be Linda Batton, Terrie Iacino, Father Jon Pedigo, and Deacon Steve Herrera.
