We are pleased to invite you to JCoR’s Global Community Hour on Friday, 8 September 2023, from 8:00-9:00am (Central time, Central America) / 9:00-10:00am (New York time) / 3:00-4:00pm (Central Africa time) / 6:30-7:30pm (India Standard time). This meeting is part of a series of monthly online gatherings for Religious from around the globe to come together in prayer for our world and to shine a light on the most pressing justice issues emerging in your respective nations and regions.

This month, JCoR will begin drafting our collective statement for the annual Commission for Social Development (CSocD). The theme for the 2024 session of CSocD is “Fostering social development and social justice through social policies to accelerate progress on the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and to achieve the overarching goal of poverty eradication.” Therefore, we are especially inviting individuals who would like to share their experience with social policies and social justice efforts to eradicate poverty. As usual, all voices and justice concerns are welcome in this communal space.

We will convene in this manner on the second Friday of each month. A flyer with additional information can be found above, and you can click here to register. English, Portuguese, and Spanish interpretation will be available. Sisters, Brothers, priests, lay associates, and partners in mission are all welcome!

Please contact communications@jcor2030.org with any questions.

We hope you and your members will join us on Friday, 8 August and for future “Global Community Hour” gatherings!
