In a message to the Catholic Social Ministry Gathering organized by the USCCB’s Secretariat of Justice and Peace, Pope Francis encourages social ministry leaders to “build bridges of reconciliation, inclusion, and fraternity,” and to not be afraid to be “protagonists of history.
The annual meeting is organized each year by the USCCB’s Secretariat of Justice and Peace, in collaboration with ten other departments of the United State Conference of Catholic Bishops, along with twenty national Catholic organizations. The theme of this year’s Gathering “Missionaries of Hope, Advocates for Justice.
The Pope goes on to express his hope that the CSMG “will become a sign of unity, to ‘build bridges of reconciliation, inclusion, and fraternity"—a challenge he knows they can rise to because, as he explained, “each one of you works very hard to recognize Jesus Christ in those most in need: the excluded, the discarded, the poor, the migrants.
And he encourages them to not be afraid “to be protagonists of history,” warning that “if we fail to promote social justice, we will not be able to guarantee the dignity of every person, of every person who comes into this world, of every hopeful young person who sets foot in the Americas.
Finally, Pope Francis encourages all the participants of the Catholic Social Ministry Gathering “to have the courage to continue to be pilgrims of hope, as your ancestors were.”
