CLM and Solidarity with the Poor
and the Most Needed
The
evangelic service of the CLM is vitally linked to the commitment
out of solidarity with anyone that discovers in any way
threatened his dignity as human being and his life affected.
This is why the Movement is committed out of solidarity with the
the most needy, the sick, the marginalized, the abandoned, the
poor, the illiterate and each and everyone in which we see the face of Christ
suffering.
The
apostolic commitment shows that there are very close ties
between the evangelization and the human advancement, putting in
front of the horizon of the Christian life the reality of a
brotherly commitment out of solidarity. The CLM has made its own
the program of reconciling liberation that Pope Paul VI proposed
in his encyclical Populorum Progressio, the dynamism that impels
to go from living conditions that are less human to ones that
are more human, opening a horizon that finds its culmination in
the full conformation with Jesus Christ. Thus an approach is
discover that promotes an authentic and integral development
that generates a society more just, that practices solidarity
and reconciles. In this way the social dimension of the
reconciliation that Jesus brought in is made concrete.
In
the job of service out of solidarity the CLM follows the
guidelines of the social doctrine of the Church. There is a firm
conviction that following the principles of orientation, the
criteria of judgement and the guidelines for action that the
social doctrine presents, one can contribute to a much needed
change of the world that gives its back to God, and thus help to
the fulfillment of humanity according to God's divine design,
and in this way contributing to the establishment of a
Civilization of Love. |
