The Catholic Identity Leaders have been working with Miss Ras to organise our 'Socktober' day on Tuesday 31st October. The day aims to raise knowledge of and money for Catholic Mission.
Catholic Mission is the Pope’s international Mission agency in Australia.
An international organisation that partners with communities, helping them to flourish by supporting grassroots projects, including healthcare, education, and spiritual care.
Our network of religious and lay missionaries operates in Africa, Asia, Europe, Oceania, the Americas. Catholic Mission’s work supports children, communities, and future Church leaders across education, healthcare, and spiritual care.
Seven Catholic Social Teaching Principles
Catholic Social Teaching (CST) is rooted in Scripture, formed by the wisdom of Church leaders, and influenced by grassroots movements. It is our moral compass, guiding us on how to live out our faith in the world.
The CST principles which inspire our work are:
- Human Dignity
- Common Good
- Solidarity
- Subsidiarity
- Preferred Option for the Poor
- Care for Creation
- Participation
Our faith calls us to love God and to love our neighbours in every situation, especially our sisters and brothers living in poverty. Following in the footsteps of Christ, we hope to make present in our unjust and broken world, the justice, love and peace of God.
