Catholic Restorative Justice Ministries - Santa Rosa

This remarkable conference has been held annually in San Francisco for twelve years. If you missed it this year, put it on your “must do” list for 2025.

The Restorative Justice Committee has prepared the following series for Advent: A Different Kind of Advent: Renewal & Restoration in English and Spanish. It was shared with the bishops, Communications Directors, Restorative Justice Directors, and chaplains.

I hope that you will also enjoy it and that you will share it with others.
