Parshes understand their particular context well. Walk your community, looking around with open eyes and prayer to see what needs are going unmet. Some needs are complex and require systematic approaches but many are smaller and simpler, easier for a parish to meet.
Some activities already underway related to becoming a more Just Church:
- London Deanery support of InDwell;
- Migrant Farm Workers program in Brant-Norfolk, Oxford, and Essex;
- Connections Centres at St. Paul’s Stratford, St. Paul’s/Trinity, Wingham. and other locations;
- Many examples of community meal/community kitchen programs, many of which have operated for over two decades (e.g., Grace, Brantford; St. John’s, London).
