Center for Social Justice and Reconciliation
A church that doesn’t provoke any crises, a gospel that doesn’t unsettle, a word of God that doesn’t get under anyone’s skin, a word of God that doesn’t touch the real sin of the society in which it is being proclaimed – what gospel is that? Oscar Romero
Grounded in a ministry that is mandated in scripture, the two main goals of the CSJR are to remind seminarians of the significance of social justice work as part of ministry and to bring the activist community into the seminary.
