EmbRace Justice

Our mission statementThe St. Elizabeth EmbRace Justice Ministry feels called to open our ears, hearts, and minds to walk humbly with our brothers and sisters of color in living out our baptismal commitment as disciples of Jesus Christ. Our mission is to address racism through education, self-awareness, understanding, solidarity, and advocacy for racial justice.

We periodically organize other events and opportunities for involvement. We will post these in the bulletin and notify our group by e-mail. If interested in participating in the EmbRace Justice Ministry, or if you have ideas to share as to how we as a Parish can become more involved in addressing racial justice issues, please ask to be added to our e-mail group by emailing Dcn. Mike McLean.

The Land Is Not Our OwnJust Faith Series

Thursdays, March 7 April 25 at 2pm in Seton Hall

Spaces are filling up! The EmbRace Justice Ministries of St. Elizabeth and St. Francis Xavier are partnering to offer a JustFaith Ministries program called The Land Is Not Our Own: Seeking Repair Alongside Indigenous Communities. The Land Is Not Our Own consists of nine meetings exploring the injustices to our Indigenous sisters and brothers and how we can be allies for them. We will meet Thursday afternoons from 2:00pm to 4:00pm in Seton Hall starting March 7. 

The cost for each participant is from $35 to $75 (depending on ability to pay), plus the purchase of two books we will reference throughout the sessions that total about $30. Don’t let cost be a factor; there are scholarships. Contact Doug Kinney (daventis1971@gmail.com) for questions or if you are interested in joining.
