The Faith and Justice Group is guided by the gospel, in particular, the Gospel according to Mark:

"As you did it to one of the least of these my brethren, you did it to me"

Matthew 25:40

The Mission Statement of the Faith and Justice Group explains why we exist and what we hope to accomplish:

To develop our Faith and community by helping others meet their needs, attain their rights, and realise their potential wherever they may be.

Implementing our Mission is centred on:

• Helping others
• Strengthening our Faith

• Bringing people together for social justice

We propose an inclusive approach to accomplish our mission based on:

• Sensitizing the parish to help others
• Giving life to universal principles of justice

• Encouraging and Supporting the work of others

 The activities of the Group are informed by Christian values:

• Faith
