Associates and RSCJ from Halifax volunteering on JPIC Global Service Day

Associates in Halifax participate in Society-wide JPIC Global Service Day

On October 20, 2023, the Feast of Mater Admirabilis, many in the Society of the Sacred Heart family worldwide participated in a JPIC (Justice, Peace, and Integrity of Creation) Global Service Day. 

Associates and Religious of the Sacred Heart in Halifax, Nova Scotia, participated in this event by supporting the Daily Bread Program at St. Mary’s Basilica Cathedral in Halifax.  The group gathered and prepared donations of both personal care items and food products for those experiencing homelessness in their city.

This day was organized by the Society of the Sacred Heart International JPIC Office, and its hope is to organize and celebrate this day of service every year going forward on the Feast of Mater Admirabilis, October 20.

The inspiration behind the day of service this year was Mary, who told the servers at the wedding feast in Cana to “do whatever he tells you.” This invitation to the entire Sacred Heart Family called on all, as artisans of hope, to participate in a volunteerism related to the Society of the Sacred Heart's JPIC imperatives:

  • Wash one another’s feet
  • Transform and be transformed
  • Care for our common home
  • Welcome people on the move
