Mission

Our work is grounded in our mission of providing better care to those living on the margins of society. We are inspired by the ministry of Jesus and the work of our Catholic ministries to bring healing, justice, comfort and hope for all, especially the vulnerable, disadvantaged, neglected and stigmatised in society.
The Cost of our Living: Economic and Social Justice for the Common Good is the first of two Social Justice Statements to be released in 2026. The statement is an invitation to listen to human stories of struggle and resilience and support those in need.
In his message to mark the 34th World Day of the Sick on February 11, Pope Leo XIV highlighted the story of the Good Samaritan: “The compassion of the Samaritan: loving by bearing another’s pain.”
Pope Francis’ Message for Lent 2025 has as its theme, “Let us journey together in hope”. This year’s Lenten season begins on 5 March, Ash Wednesday, and ends on 17 April, Holy Thursday.
