The Adele Social Justice Project has put a major focus on hosting community-centered podcast discussion groups within the Marianist Family and beyond. These discussion groups are focused on social justice issues and faith.
Most recently, the ASJP team has committed host a discussion group called the Another Name for Everything Series each year Lent. This is a 7-week series of prayer, reflections and conversations about Richard Rohr's podcast based on his book The Universal Christ. The group engages in weekly conversations and reflections about the connections between action & contemplation. More information will be here once dates have been confirmed for this series.
ASJP and the Association of Marianist Universities hosted an election and civic engagement discussion titled Elections 2020: Justice Signs of Our Time - A US Marianist Panel & Dialogue. This event featured presenters and participants from our Marianist Universities, schools and other ministries and communities. It provided an opportunity for reflection and respectfully dialogue in about being multi-issue voters that advance justice, peace and a sustainable environmental future. Please take a look at the Summary and Voter Resources Guide that was created after the event.
ASJP is hoping to keep creating spaces around these important conversations and issues, including how to be a civic and faithful person in the day-to-day, global citizenship, and more. The team is in the process of creating some follow-up and continuation events around Faithful Citizenship.
