Diocese of Limerick Social Justice Module: Following on from a Social Media campaign last year, the diocese of Limerick has now developed a resource pack on Catholic Social Justice. The pack contains images, ideas for discussion, projects, activities and also points to other resources that might be useful. They have also compiled some prayers, reflections, speeches and poems, all relating to social justice themes which might help you to prepare liturgies or moments of prayer and reflection. They hope that this resource will be useful to you and help you to raise awareness about these important issues. Please feel free to make your own of them!
