From the editor

It is not hard for social justice workers to see Jesus in the crucified ones of our world, but do we also perceive the resurrected Jesus in them too?

At this time of the liturgical year we reflect on the strange ‘in between time’ after the resurrection and before the assumption.

In these post resurrection days, let us be attentive to hope rising like Jesus in the lives of the people and communities around us.

Quote of the month

"The migrant is a human person who possesses fundamental, inalienable rights that must be respected by everyone and in every circumstance."
