Holy Cross Beloved Community launches Justice Education Initiative and Monthly Book Party

The Holy Cross Coalition for A Beloved Community is launching a justice education initiative this year to  discover more about poverty and homelessness in Durham.


Beginning Saturday, February 27 at 11 am, Holy Cross will hold monthly book parties where people can gather to read and discuss the book, When We Walk By: Forgotten Humanity, Broken Systems, and the Role We Can Each Play in Ending Homelessness in American by Kevin Adler and Donald Burnes. The book is available at Amazon.com or other booksellers. Youth activities during faith formation classes will include poverty and homelessness simulations, discussions, and an Expo in May.


Fall activities will include guest speakers and presenters, a retreat, and listening sessions. The goal is to develop ways that the parish can work together to address the concerns of poverty and homelessness in our

Durham Community.


If you don’t like the way the world is, you change it. You have an obligation to change it. You just do it one step at a time.

- Marian Wright Edelman, President Emerita of Children’s Defense Fund
