YEARLY CALENDAR
​JUSTICE, PEACE, AND INTEGRITY OF CREATION (JPIC)

JPIC CALENDAR
​June 2026 - June 2027

I created two separate sections below for our JPIC yearly calendar to help share information about all our Justice, Peace, and Integrity of Creation (JPIC) ministry meetings and events.

I. JPIC RECURRING MINISTRY MEETINGS

• ​Scheduled JPIC meetings recurring on a monthly/regular schedule. 

II. JPIC MONTHLY CALENDAR

• JPIC meetings/events scheduled on a specific date during each calendar month.​

*Please Note: Since our parishioner run ministries frequently schedule new events and programming, dates and information on this page are tentative and subject to change. Some meetings and activities may only be announced "internally" through each JPIC parishioner ministry leader's email lists and not on our JPIC public calendar below. Please remember to visit our main JPIC web page for more detailed information and additional programs.

Thank you for all that you do for our parish and community!
