Roman Catholic Commission to release social study findings today

Nov 25, 2015 News

After carrying out a social study, the Justice and Peace Commission (JPC) of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Georgetown, Guyana will be releasing their findings today.
The event is scheduled for today at 4:30 pm at Marian Academy, Carifesta Avenue, Georgetown.
According to a release from the JPC, due to the suspension of Parliament in November 2014, Bishop Francis Alleyne issued a call for the Church to become active in helping the nation navigate the dangers of ethno-political conflict. The Bishop issued a mandate that there be processes of engagement with parishes to pray, reflect, discuss and discern the urgings of the Holy Spirit as it relates to justice and peace in Guyana.
The report entitled, “Reconciliation and Trust” will be highlighting the key findings emerging from the engagement process with Catholics and Catholic groups across the country
Brief remarks will be offered by His Lordship Bishop Francis Alleyne, O.S.B., followed by a discussion of key findings of the engagement process which was undertaken by Peace and Governance Practitioner, Lawrence Lachmansingh and Attorney-at-Law, Gino Peter Persaud.
In its closing, the release read “The Justice and Peace Commission of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Georgetown is tasked with disseminating the social teachings of the Church. The JPC is a body that seeks by Christian witness to contribute to the development of Guyana by promoting justice and peace as fundamental elements within enabling human relations, be these social, economic or political. The Commission has as its ultimate end the development of a society based on respect, equality, and dignity”.
