"The new evangelization calls on every baptized person to be a peacemaker and a credible witness to a reconciled life. In a culture which privileges dialogue as a form of encounter, it is time to devise a means for building consensus and agreement while seeking the goal of a just, responsive and inclusive society." Pope Francis, The Joy of the Gospel, 239 But how do we do so in this present time of a deeply polarized society? The Life, Peace and Justice Commission would like to begin a process of learning to develop such dialogue around issues which the Gospel calls upon us to address but which so often lead to a fruitless polarization rather than a "credible witness to a reconciled life." Toward that end, we are inviting you as part of this faith community to take a
brief survey to select an issue or issues which you would like to enter into a dialogue about with those who do not necessarily share your view.
