JustFaith
JustFaith® Catholic, is a adult faith formation program that offers an opportunity for parishioners to experience a spiritual journey into compassion. Most of us long to be a generous and compassionate people; however, the occasions to explore this part of our faith tradition in a deliberate and engaging way have largely not been available. JustFaith, offered in parishes and dioceses across the country, changes lives, inspires compassion, and transforms the world through love and service.
JustFaith takes advantage of many forms of adult learning; the process includes books, videos, guest speakers, discussion, prayer, two weekend retreats and four immersion experiences. The intent is to provide a tapestry of learning opportunities that emphasize and enliven the remarkable justice tradition of the Church. Participants are not only exposed to a substantive and demanding course of study but are also afforded the privilege of becoming community with other participants and sharing a journey of faith and compassion that is both life-giving and challenging.

JustFaith Ministries provides programs that transform people and expand their commitment to social ministry. Through these life-changing opportunities, members of a church or parish can study, explore and experience Christ’s call to care for the poor and vulnerable in a lively, challenging, multifaceted process in the context of a small faith community."
