“Love – caritas – is an extraordinary force which leads people to opt for courageous and generous engagement in the field of justice and peace,” states Caritas in Veritate. Amidst cutthroat competitions, consumerism and materialism, this year's message comes with a special focus on Integral Human and social welfare based true charity that begets justice. Without these our developments are incomplete.

Yours for Justice and Peace,
Bishop Yvon Ambroise,Chairman,CBCI Commission for Justice, Peace and Development, Catholic Bishops' Conference of India
