Charity

The mission of St. Austin Catholic Church's Social Justice Ministries is to help parishioners recognize and respond to their Baptismal call to discipleship. Rooted in scripture and guided by Catholic social teaching, the program seeks to educate the parish about social ministry and provide the means by which individuals and the parish community can use their gifts to serve the poor and vulnerable and to work for justice locally and throughout the world.

At the root of social ministry is the call to justice and charity. We're called to participate in both, although most of us feel more drawn to one than the other.
