In this volume, leaders from Catholic social services and the broader Church explore what it means to be a Catholic ministry, and what difference that makes to the communities that we serve. Such dialogue is welcome, indeed necessary if we are to be true to our Gospel-inspired mission of standing with those who are disadvantaged and marginalised. It fits well with the journey towards the 2020 synod of the whole Catholic Church in Australia, which we can expect to engage with contemporary issues of justice, peace and development.
