Our Mission Statement

We solemnly vow to inform others of the Catholic Social Teachings. We will try to implement into other peoples' lives a more firm understanding of what is socially acceptable. What we hope to achieve is a more Christian, loving world. We will provide others with the morals and teachings that we receive from St.John, and with the help of others we will change others' lives.

Solidarity




Solidarity means that we are all one with each other. It also means that we have forgiveness for one another. Solidarity is a Christian virtue. And saying that we know that we have a responsibility to help one another and also care for on another and to just not hate each other even if you don't like someone, as in a classmate, co-worker, etc. Acting out Solidarity makes you a good Samaritan, and you can achieve this by helping someone out if they're being beat-up or need help studying for a really important test. Solidarity is also to help your neighbor, help out at a charity, donate to a hospital, or anything that can bring the world together. Seclusion isn't an example of solidarity because it means you are just all by yourself and shove people away instead of actually letting people into your life and having friends. Solidarity can make you really think about how you should live, like in the Cube of Love and how it says to love your enemy, love everyone, etc. The Cube of love is a great way to live out solidarity. Take some time out of your day just to talk to someone you usually ignore. By pulling people together in small ways, we contribute to uniting the world.
