➢ Pope Francis appeals to the international community and every individual to
foster a “culture of care” by advancing on the “path of fraternity, justice
and peace between individuals, communities, peoples and nations.” “There
can be no peace without a culture of care,” the Pope stresses.

➢ The Holy Father calls for “a common, supportive and inclusive commitment
to protecting and promoting the dignity and good of all, a willingness to
show care and compassion, to work for reconciliation and healing, and to
advance mutual respect and acceptance.”

➢ In this task, Pope Francis offers the principles of the Church’s social doctrine
as a compass on the path to peace. Like the prophets, followers of God are
called to uphold justice. For where justice is upheld, peace flourishes.

➢ CICM missionaries dedicate themselves to programs that protect those who

cannot protect themselves, show compassion to the abandoned and
support marginalized communities. Even today, programs for the attainment
of Justice and Peace are being implemented for a more harmonious
society.
