We are happy to welcome young men and women from colleges and universities throughout the United States and Canada for the Seminar on Catholic Social Teaching, entitled Building a World of Hope and a Community for Peace. At this third annual event, inspired by the recent visit of His Holiness, Pope Benedict XVI, students from Catholic colleges and univeristies are welcomed to New York to gather, listen, learn and share ideas on the ways of the world, through the lens of Catholic Social Teaching. You are invited to use these pages to share ideas, challenge one another, and to truly build bridges of justice! Congratulations for being selected for such an important seminar.
What We are About. . .
We plant seeds that one day will grow. We water seeds already planted, knowing that they hold future promise. We lay foundations that will need further development. We provide yeast that produces effects beyond our capabilities. We cannot do everything. And there is a sense of liberation in realizing that. This enables us to do something, and do it very well. It may be incomplete but it is a beginning, a step along the way, an opportunity for God’s grace to enter and do the rest. We may never see the end results, but that is the difference between the master builder and the worker. We are workers, not master builders. Ministers, not messiahs. We are prophets of a future not our own. - Blessed Oscar Romero-
