Catholic Archdiocese of Perth

Welcome.

A word about justice today.

Justice is more than decisions delivered by our courts.

Justice is something personal – the resolve to be just in all we do and to seek justice for others.

Justice means living life in accord with God's laws.

Justice is also one of the marks of God's kingdom. God wants us to be passionate in the defence of the weak because of their dignity as human beings. The pursuit of justice takes courage and tenacity when we risk our own wellbeing and safety - but it is worthwhile.

Jesus said, 'Blessed are those who are persecuted in the cause of right, theirs is the kingdom of heaven'.

I’m Barry Hickey, Catholic Archbishop of Perth.
