COMMITMENT TO JUSTICE THE CORE OF THE CHURCH'S MISSION
The CLT website also reproduces the keynote address given by Michael McCabe SMA at the Africa Europe Faith and Justice Network (AEFJN) seminar held in Dublin earlier this year in which the central place of justice in the life of the Church is stressed.
"Commitment to justice is not just one area or even one dimension of the Church’s mission to the world. It is….at the very heart of what all mission and ministry in the name of Christ and his Gospel is all about. If concern for, and the active promotion of, a more just, peaceful and environmentally healthy world, is not central to what we are doing ….. then we cannot in truth say we are witnesses and proclaimers of the integral Gospel of Christ."
The full text of the article can be found at The Heart of Being Brother website of the Christian Brothers Congregational Leadership Team.
