Youth Speak about Justice

Shawnee Baldwin, Coordinator of Youth and Young Adult Ministry for the Office of Religious Education of the Archdiocese of Hartford, facilitated a workshop called Youth Speak at the first Annual Bishop Rosazza Social Justice Conference sponsored by the Office for Catholic Social Justice Ministry.



Young people from four parishes talked about projects - Corporal Works of Mercy - that have transformed the lives of both participants and recipients: Young Neighbors in Action ; Cardboard City, Justice Club for Kids, Justice Walking, and the CRS Food Fast


The parish youth present at this workshop were from St Anthony-Prospect, St Francis of Assisi-South Windsor, St Patrick-Farmington, and Sacred Heart-Southbury.
