Catholics for Peace and Justice of southeastern WI is an organization based on Catholic social principles. We support the Church's "consistent ethic of life," which begins with an understanding of God as our creator and human life as God's sacred gift. The dignity of all life must be respected from conception to natural death. We are concerned about the state of our nation and world. We see a world threatened by war, terrorism, growing economic inequality, environmental catastrophe, and divisions between religions, nations, races, genders, and ethnic groups. We call on Catholics, and all people of faith, to consider whether their political and economic beliefs and actions are reflective of their faith.     [Join Us] Summoned to Justice: Equipping Faith Communities to Answer the Call Saturday, Febuary 11, 2012  - 8:30 am-12:30 pm Are you involved in human concerns or social justice in your community?  Is God calling you to take the next step?
