Environmental Justice Ministry

The U.S. Bishops have spoken clearly that caring for creation is another way that we care for life itself. Sustainable agriculture is a major duty of farmers and farm workers in the entire valley. Statistics show that the air quality in the Valley is often in the unhealthy range and affects the lives of all of our people. An effective social ministry effort will become aware of the environmental threats to the Valley, the parish, city, and state, and will work with others in the wider community to address those issues.
