Every other month, the Adele Social Justice Project Team gathers together for a time of extended prayer and reflection. These gatherings allow individuals to connect and grow spiritually, providing a much needed space for Catholic young adults. You can join our ASJP group below to receive email invitations whenever these prayers are scheduled throughout the year. We hope you'll join us!

Kickin' It Events

The Adele Social Justice Project Team has recently developed a program called Kickin' It, which focuses on creating a space for dialogue for young adults. ASJP piggybacks on other MSJC programs, especially virtual events, and invites anyone present to stay after to dialogue with specific questions produced by ASJP. Two Kickin' It Events have taken place so far after these team events:

Immigration and Your Vote Panel facilitated by our Immigrant Justice Issue Team
St. Mary's Law Student Cody Huffman's Experience with Melissa Lucio's Case facilitated by our Death Penalty Abolition and Restorative Justice Issue Team

Be on the lookout for future Kickin' It events which support our MSJC programs, intentionally bring more young people into conversation, and help people of all ages learn from the voices and gifts of younger Marianists.

Kickin' It Events

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.
