The mission of Justice, Peace and Integrity of Creation is to assist the professed Secular Franciscans as they reflect on their relationship with God as manifested in the fruits of conversion in their lives. This with special regard to the daily choices made in the areas of justice, peace making and respect for all created things and people; as brothers and sisters of penance, bringing life to the Gospel and the Gospel to Life.
Mindful that they are bearers of peace which must be built up unceasingly, they should seek out ways of unity and fraternal harmony through dialogue, trusting in the presence of the divine seed in everyone and in the transforming power of love and pardon. Messengers of perfect joy in every circumstance, they should strive to bring joy and hope to others. (Article 19)
Let them individually and collectively be in the forefront in promoting justice by the testimony of their human lives and their courageous initiatives. Especially in the field of public life, they should make definite choices in harmony with their faith. (Article 15)

Our brother Francis, of all the great saints, unreservedly embraced Jesus, the Word made flesh. If our great and majestic God could wholly and lovingly become one with the created world through Jesus Christ, how could Francis and his brothers and sisters not do likewise?
Francis believed that Christ and the gospel called him to be one with all people and all Creation. For followers of Francis, this universal and all-inclusive kinship demands resistance to injustice, exploitation and all oppression that mock what God so lovingly expressed through the life, ministry, death and resurrection of Jesus.
As friars minor (lesser brothers) of our beloved Francis, we humbly and tirelessly champion the Cause of Justice, Peace and Integrity of Creation (JPIC) through prayer and action.
Purpose of the JPIC office for the Province of St. Joseph:
“I repeat forcefully: it is neither a culture of confrontation nor a culture of conflict which builds harmony within and between peoples, but rather a culture of encounter and a culture of dialogue; this is the only way to peace. May the plea for peace rise up and touch the heart of everyone so that they may lay down their weapons and be let themselves be led by the desire for peace.” Pope Francis (9/1/13)
"What does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?" Micah 6:8
