Make our actions signs of God's love for Humanity
GOD COMES into our everyday lives, into the peace and the turmoil, the joys and the sorrows, the hopes and the disappointments, even during pandemics and war. The Mission of Jesus is to give good news to the poor, to open the eyes of the blind, to set captives free, to bind up hearts that are broken, to comfort those who mourn. As followers of Jesus, we share that same mission.
2020 Christmas with COVID 19 pandemic health restrictions, the Human Rights Office focused its attention on the victims of Torture, the prisoners and their families, the families of the disappeared and the victims of various Human Rights violations and miscarriage of Justice invariably the poor.
"Make our actions signs of God's love for Humanity'' was the theme for 2020 Christmas. The poster with the above theme was distributed to all the parishes inviting the faithful to share and experience God's love. The Christmas gift giving tradition is to express our love and generosity, the smallest expression can mean a lot. As victims of Torture, rape, families of the disappeared and the prisoners are dehumanized, we invite everyone to respect their dignity going beyond the generosity in sharing the dignity of God. God shared His Love, for the humanity by His incarnation and sharing the love of God the staff of the Human Rights Office prepared a gift that contained the most essential food items and shared with the victims during the Christmas gatherings held on the 17th & 18th of December at the Human Rights Office. The victims were invited in groups and explained the meaning of Christmas and the theme selected.
