COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
In Luke 10, Jesus articulates a vision for the work and mission of the Church—one that sends the Church out into the world as apostles—to heal, to bring about reconciliation, to cultivate peace, and to proclaim the Kingdom of God.
Naturally, this journey begins on our Cathedral campus; however, to fully realize Jesus' vision we must go out into the community and live out our baptism by proclaiming by word and example the Good News of God in Christ... seeking and serving Christ in all persons, loving our neighbor as our self... striving for justice and peace among all people, and respecting the dignity of every human being.
It is beyond the walls of our Cathedral campus where we will discover the Loving, Liberating and Life-giving spirit of God that will transform our community; and, thus, transform us into the people God is calling us to be!
Here are some ways St. James is beginning to engage with our community--in Fresno, throughout the Central Valley, and beyond.
