Pax
Christi USA strives to create a world that reflects the Peace
of Christ by exploring, articulating, and witnessing to the
call of Christian nonviolence. This work begins in personal
life and extends to communities of reflection and action to
transform structures of society. Pax Christi USA rejects war,
preparations for war, and every form of violence and domination.
It advocates primacy of conscience, economic and social justice,
and respect for creation.
Pax Christi USA commits itself to peace education and, with
the help of its bishop members, promotes the gospel imperative
of peacemaking as a priority in the Catholic Church in the
United States. Through the efforts of all its members and
in cooperation with other groups, Pax Christi USA works toward
a more peaceful, just, and sustainable world.
Pax Christi is a section of Pax
Christi International, the Catholic peace movement.
