We are a grassroots organization affiliated with Call to Action at the national level. Our purpose is to participate in the renewal and reform of the Catholic church to which we belong. We do this through prayer, study, action and community experience. Our hope is to see our church live out more fully the Beatitudes which reflect the dream of Jesus for those who follow his way. We study contemporary theology and offer that opportunity to others through programs. We take action when we perceive injustice, exclusivity or a lack of accountability in our local church. Please join us, if you wish, so that together we can create the change we want to see in ourselves and in our faith tradition. In this time of global crises and spiritual hunger, we want to find ways to be “better stewards of the mysteries of God.”[1Cor.4:1]
