Mission Statement
The Saints JFX Care for Creation Ministry is dedicated to inspiring and enabling parishioners and their families to cherish and protect God’s gift of creation. The ministry will offer opportunities for education and action, focused on the natural world, the environment, and humanity as an integral part of creation. The ministry will collaborate with other faith-based groups and the wider community, guided by the Pope, the Archdiocese, and other parishes, to promote environmental stewardship and to address the challenges of climate change.
​

Areas of focus:

• Growing our understanding and awareness of Pope Francis’ encyclical Laudato Si and Pope Leo XIV’s commitments to the Care of our Common Home.
• Working with SSJFX ministries to support actions which support the environment and environmental justice.
• Inspiring our youth to respect our natural environment, including the adoption of zero waste practices
• Supporting the parish One Plan including the thoughtful decommissioning of obsolete buildings.

Ministry meets on the 3rd Thursday of the month. For more information and how to get involved contact Peter Alonzi [email protected] or Ben Ivory [email protected].
