OUR MISSION
Seeds of Justice Network, a collaborative of Catholic and faith-based individuals and groups, promotes the principles of Catholic Social Teaching and social justice in the St. Louis region and beyond.
OUR VISION
Seeds of Justice Network achieves its mission by fostering communication, collaboration, education, and advocacy among individuals and parishes in the Catholic community and with other faith-based and secular groups. In a spirit of openness and mutual respect, SOJN is nonpartisan and independent, conducts its efforts in accord with the Church’s mission of social justice, and addresses local, national, and international issues.
OUR HISTORY
The Seeds of Justice movement began in 2017. Following a two-year collaboration with Fontbonne University, "Seeds of Justice Network" (SOJN) incorporated as an independent organization in December 2020 and became an official 501(c)3 nonprofit in December 2021.
What a wonderful experience!
What a wonderful experience!
We had such a wonderful experience dining with Sister Norma and the Seeds of Justice Board. The winners of our drawing were given a special opportunity to engage in conversation with our honored guests from the Incarnate Word Foundation, the Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet, CLAM, and of course, Sister Norma herself.
The meal was delicious, but it was the conversation that truly nourished us—filled with inspiration, insight, and even a few good laughs. We are always grateful for moments like these spent with fellow justice seekers, and we look forward to more opportunities to gather, share, and grow together.

Breaking down the systemic forces that allow poverty to persist is critical for eliminating poverty entirely. However, until that can be achieved, volunteering with groups in your community is a great way to make change locally. In communities across the country, there are countless programs and initiatives that provide immediate and long-term help to individuals and families experiencing poverty.
