by Leela Ramdeen, Chair, CCSJ

Mother and Teacher of all nations—such is the Catholic Church . . . to hold the world in an embrace of love, that men, in every age, should find in her their own completeness in a higher order of living, and their ultimate salvation. She is ‘the pillar and ground of the truth’. (Mater et Magistra, Pope John XXIII).

I was honoured to be able to participate in a recent Congress in Rome, organised by the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace (PCJP), to mark the 50th Anniversary of Pope John XXIII’s encyclical, Mater et Magistra (Mother and Teacher – on Christianity and social progress). The theme of the Congress was: Justice and Globalisation: From Mater et Magistra to Caritas in Veritate.

by Fr Joseph Harris, CSSp

Gospel: John 14, 15 – 21

Jesus said to his disciples: “If you love me, you will keep my commandments. And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate to be with you always, the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot accept, because it neither sees nor knows him. But you know him, because he remains with you, and will be in you. I will not leave you orphans; I will come to you.
