MISSION WEEK HIGHLIGHT
“Voices of Faith and Justice Around the World”
Each February, a vigil is held at Fort Benning, Ga., to protest the Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation, whose graduates are accused of committing social and human rights atrocities around the world, including the massacre of six Jesuit priests in 1989. The roundtable will hear from members of the Marquette community as they reflect on how their sense of faith and justice has called them to participate in this annual protest.
