Benedict XVI: social teachings

This week's JPIC Blog is a PowerPoint prepared by Fr Vincent Anes CMF on the social teaching of Pope Benedict XVI. He comments: 'We thank God for the gift of this Pope to the Church. Along with his significant life and mission, he has made distinctive contributions to the social teachings of the Church'.  A summary of his encyclicals Deus Caritas Est and Caritas in Veritate, the PowerPoint is also available in French, Italian and Spanish.  To download English version, click here.                                  [Jan 16]

In darkness, a light

The Marist International JPIC Blog is coordinated weekly by Fr Ben McKenna with French translations by Fr Jean-Bernard Jolly. In their Christmas-New Year message, they say 'The light comes upon us, as we see war, injustice, and violence against the humble all over this world. Blessings on you, your family, and your community for the Christmas time and the approaching New Year.'

Their greeting includes a prayer and image from New Zealand and Australian Marists, Frs Peter Healy and Jim Carty:  click here..                               [Jan 02, 2023]
