  What's Parish Social Ministry?  
  
The mission of the Parish Social Ministry office is to call the entire church, and all people of goodwill, to establish a more just and peaceful society.  The office invites all to answer the Gospel call to work for the Kingdom of God, and serves as a resource for church parishes in the Diocese of Houma-Thibodaux.  The mission is accomplished through education on Catholic Social Teaching, advocacy, community organizing, and leadership development.
