September29,2019
The event is scheduled to be held at Corpus Christi Parish, 300 N. Tanque Verde Loop Road, Tucson, beginning at 3 p.m.
The award recognizes individuals who are committed to the ongoing faith formation of adults, and to promoting the Catholic faith through their ministries and advocacy work; and who realize the vision of Salvatorian founder Father Francis Jordan of proclaiming the loving kindness of the Divine Savior by “all ways and means inspired by the love of Christ.”
Father Carroll will be honored “for his invaluable leadership of the Kino Border Initiative and his tireless work of advocating for the rights of migrants; and inviting others to join in promoting justice and mercy for immigrants and refugees,” said an August press release announcing the award.
Jordan Ministry Team was established in 2001 as a collaborative ministry of the Salvatorian priests, brothers, sisters and laity. The current director is Salvatorian Brother Silas Henderson.
