The Justice, Peace, and Integrity of Creation Committee organizes the people of Holy Cross-Saint John the Baptist in faith-rooted campaigns to win social and economic justice for the poor in our city and our world. Our highest priorities are climate action, a living wage, and immigration reform. 

We educate parishioners about issues from a perspective rooted in the Franciscan, Catholic, Christian tradition. We organize the poor who rely on the parish for material needs and spiritual uplift. We mobilize members of the parish to bring the voice of the Catholic Church and the Franciscan movement into the public arena. We take part in public events, including prayer vigils, marches, and rallies.
