Domestic Violence is one of the issues adopted by NCCW and by KDCCW as part of our Campaign for Human Dignity. The USCCB also has a beautifully written statement entitled When I Call for Help: A Pastoral Response to Domestic Violence Against Women.

Biography
Service Commission Report January 14, 2012

"We can do no great things - only small things with great love." ~ Blessed Mother Theresa of Calcutta

As Domestic Violence Awareness Month is drawing to a close, let's start planning for our parishes to participate in the Speak Out on Family Violence in January. Check out the information on the website, Family Violence Website ,and present it to your pastor, asking him to join clergy of many faiths throughout our region by preparing a homily that addresses the issue of Domestic Violence. If he is willing to participate, you may also want to work with local resources to set up a table with information for parishioners to pick up after masses. My parish (Immaculate Conception in Knoxville ), did this very successfully a few years ago, and I would be happy to help you organize it for your parish. I also can help you access materials from the Knoxville Family Justice Center , where I volunteer as a Certified Domestic Violence Chaplain.

Congregations across the region are uniting to communicate on the weekend of JANUARY 22, 2012, that abuse is not acceptable and that love is not supposed to hurt. You are invited to share a message of God's hope to those affected by family violence.

Additional resources and commentaries (focused on family violence) for the lectionary readings for that weekend can be found on the Clergy Task Force website--
