Human Dignity

Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you.

Jeremiah 1:5

 

Understanding that every person’s life, including ourselves, should be respected and supported to ensure that we can flourish in all aspects of life, as children of God.

We recognise the human dignity of others by:

  • being respectful
  • treating people equally
  • raising awareness of civil rights
  • preferential option for the vulnerable

 

    

 

 Our Saint for Human Dignity is St Maximilian Kolbe

 

Prayers for Human Dignity

 

Christ has no body but yours,

No hands, no feet on earth but yours,

Yours are the eyes with which He looks,

Compassion on this world.

Yours are the feet with which He walks to do good,

Yours are the hands, with which He blesses all the world.

Yours are the hands, yours are the feet,

Yours are the eyes, you are His body.

Christ has no body now but yours,

No hands, no feet on earth but yours,

Yours are the eyes with which he looks

Compassion on this world.

Christ has no body now on earth but yours.

- St. Teresa of Ávila
