Our Mission is to be effective instruments of God's peace, bearers of God's love and advocates of God's justice, near and far, for those who are deprived of their human rights and the ability to meet their own needs.

Jesus said, “I was hungry and you gave me food… I was naked and you clothed me. I was ill and you… looked after me. I was in prison and you came to see me…”
-Matthew 25:35-36
