“Charity is certainly
greater than any rule.
Moreover, all rules
must lead to charity.”

United Nations NGO Impact Justice Circle

Our Justice Circle:

• Seeks to connect the global work of the United Nations to our diverse local contexts.
• Engages in grassroots conversations with the Sisters of Charity Federation Representative at the United Nations, Dr. Jimmy Walters, who shares about his work on the global stage.
• Dialogues about our local contexts and how they can help or connect to Jimmy’s work at the UN.
• Focuses on various topics based on what Jimmy is working on, but they all focus on some aspect of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. Find out more about UN’s Goals here. 

Join Us!

• Our Circle is open to all members of the Sisters of Charity Federation.
• We meet every 6-8 weeks on Zoom.  
• Contact Mackenzie Doyle (doyle@srcharitycinti.org) or S. Marge Kloos (marge.kloos@srcharitycinti.org) if interested in joining this circle.
