New Zealand Catholic Bishops Conference Organizes a Social Justice Week on Migration

Once again this year, the New Zealand Catholic Bishops Conference is organizing a Social Justice Week to reflect on Catholic social teachings relating to social justice in New Zealand revolving around the theme “We all have a migration story: Fostering a culture of encounter”.

On this occasion, the faithful are called to share their migration journey and contribute to bolstering a culture of solidarity and dialogue with others in their local parishes.

“Human dignity, solidarity and common good are the principles upon which we must treat our migrant brothers and sisters,” the Bishops Conference commented. “Migration provides an opportunity for enriching contact among cultures and civilizations.”
