Catholics must use the current political and social climate to reclaim the Church’s original “counter-culture” role and “engage the structures of injustice,” a group of St. Matthias parishioners was told Feb. 11.
Speaking to the group of about 50 parishioners in a special Black History Month program, Fr. Aniedi Okure, executive director of the Africa Faith & Justice Network of Washington, D.C., said that he hopes “that we as a Church community, beyond the local communities, don’t miss this opportunity to engage (the Catholic Church’s) prophetic role.”
