Rooted in an interfaith commitment to justice, mercy, and the dignity of all people, the Social Justice ministry brings diverse faith voices together to address pressing public concerns such as predatory lending, food insecurity, and human trafficking. Through initiatives like Daybreak in Alabama, along with programs including JustFaith, Justice Circles, climate engagement efforts, and partnerships with organizations such as Faith in Action Alabama and Alabama Arise, the ministry equips individuals and communities to reflect on public policy, deepen shared values, and take meaningful action toward greater economic justice and equity.
Through programs such as Daybreak in Alabama, the Social Justice ministry focuses on public policy issues such as predatory lending, food insecurity, and human trafficking. Participants begin by exploring whether current policies reflect the models of justice and mercy upheld across faith traditions, with the goal of identifying and removing barriers to economic justice and equity.
