Jubilee years are celebrated every twenty five years, and are an occasion of grace, an opportunity to renew our own commitment to Christ and to renew society, to make it more just, more in conformity to God’s vision for humanity.
We want to empower Catholics across England and Wales towards living out their vocation to tackle injustice, transform human relations, and to heal the wounds of our society. Do Justice is about making that happen.
It’s more than just charity. It’s more than just a one-off campaign. For those of us who are baptised, it’s the call to fulfil our vocation as witnesses and agents of peace and justice.
Through Do Justice, together we are reading and understanding the signs of the times all around us, taking positive action and raising our voices for good.
Our mission is about more than charity, it is about tackling the root causes of injustice. It is about raising awareness of the needs of people in our society, inspired by love. It is about promoting the rights and duties of every human being, about lasting change, a way of living in line with the Gospel. We envision a society where the dignity of every person is respected and upheld, where everyone can flourish and live in peace and freedom, and where there is no exclusion, discrimination, or dehumanising poverty.
Do Justice: A Vision for Spiritual and Civic Renewal in England and Wales, 2023
Published by Caritas Social Action Network, this core text sets out a renewed vision for the nations of England and Wales, centred on Christ and Catholic Social Teaching. It is an invitation to the Catholic communities of England and Wales to fulfil ever more deeply our baptismal vocation and it is the foundation of Do Justice.
Jubilee years are celebrated every twenty five years, and are an occasion of grace, an opportunity to renew our own commitment to Christ and to renew society, to make it more just, more in conformity to God’s vision for humanity.
Catholics are called to exercise active citizenship and contribute to the building up of God’s Kingdom of “love, justice and peace” (Gaudium et Spes, 39) as we head to the polls on 04 July 2024.
