Justice and solidarity in the Archdiocese of Moncton

Our mission
The mission of the Archdiocese of Moncton's Diocesan Justice and Solidarity Team is to promote social justice and solidarity in our community.
We support efforts to help those who are deprived, disadvantaged or victims of injustice. Our team is made up of representatives from the various pastoral units of the diocese, united to act together.
Acting for the most disadvantaged
Every sacrament has three dimensions: a sign, what we see; a word, what we hear; and a symbol, what the sign and word express.
Presence and support
We work with people in difficulty to help them find solutions to their problems.
Awareness
We inform parishioners and the public about the realities of poverty and injustice around us.
Support for initiatives
We support self-help projects and initiatives that value people in need.
Solidarity beyond borders
We collaborate with organizations such as Development and Peace-Caritas Canada and the Pontifical Mission Societies to extend our action.

The foundations of our commitment
Our work is inseparable from our faith. The Church invites us to live by the seven fundamental principles of her social doctrine, which guide our actions :
- The dignity of the human person
- The common good
- Subsidiarity
- Solidarity
- The preferential option for the poor
- The universal destination of goods
- Respect for human life
Love of neighbor at the heart of our action
Jesus loved the poor with a special love, and his teaching reminds us that every human person is equal in God's eyes. By praying and trusting the Spirit, we find the strength to persevere in our commitment to justice and solidarity.
