A Process of Ecclesial Renewal 2020-2024, underlines a strong commitment to the promotion of human life and dignity: “Above all, we are called to place the safeguarding of human life and dignity at the centre of our proclamation and service.”
This fundamental option reminds us of the words of Jesus: “I came so that you may have life, and have it in abundance” (Jn 10:10)… Read more »
