Preparing for the birth of Christ

As we prepare for the coming of the birth of Jesus, let us see Him in the faces of our “neighbours”. Amidst the splendour of the decorations in the malls and the “goodies” in our stores and supermarkets, spare a thought for Jesus who lives among us and who is hungry. See Jesus in the homeless, the destitute, and those in need. He came so that we may have life, and have it to the full. Yet thousands in T&T and millions around the world live like Lazarus, waiting for the crumbs to fall from the table of the rich.

Christ and corruption totally incompatible

by Mike James, member of the CCSJ
by Mike James, member of the CCSJ

“At this time, there are too many scandals and injustices, too much corruption and greed, too many errors and lies, too much violence which leads to misery and to death.”

“Every people wishes to understand the political and economic choices which are made in its name. They perceive manipulation and their revenge is sometimes violent.”

“Do not deprive your peoples of hope! Do not cut them off from their future by mutilating their present!”
