Mission: Inspired by the Gospel of Jesus Christ, CTK Sowers of Justice will strive to be the catalyst within the CTK parish community for promotion of social justice through education, advocacy, collaboration, leadership and action.

• The Sowers of Justice will be the “conscience and catalyst” for the entire CTK Community on issues of social justice; identifying for the parish issues of disparity and injustice that we as Christians should be aware of and active in changing.
• The Sowers of Justice will be an “inviting agent” constantly offering members of the CTK community opportunities to engage in issues of social justice. With these invites, the Sowers of Justice will break down barriers that keep likeminded people from engaging in action on issues relevant to our world.
• The Sowers of Justice will be an “educational arm” providing the entire CTK Community the information they need to understand issues of social justice and inform them about strategies and tactics that can result in social change.
• The Sowers of Justice will be “leaders of a legacy” that not only has Sowers active in social justice issues but also builds groups and coalitions that go beyond our membership to create powerful forces for change.
