The 7 Key Themes of Catholic Social Teaching: 6 - Solidarity

From the Social Concerns Ministry.

Seven Themes of Catholic Social Teaching: US Conference of Catholic Bishops:

Theme 6: “SOLIDARITY”

We are one human family whatever our national, racial, ethnic, economic, and ideological differences. We are our brothers’ and sisters’ keepers, wherever they may be.  Loving our neighbor has global dimensions in a shrinking world. At the core of the virtue of solidarity is the pursuit of justice and peace. Pope Paul VI taught that “if you want peace, work for justice.” The Gospel calls us to be peacemakers. Our love for all our sisters and brothers demands that we promote peace in a world surrounded by violence and conflict.
