Josephite Justice is committed to reverence the human dignity of each person, to respond to the cry of Earth and the cry of children, to live in consciousness of our place in the evolving universe.
This calls us to serve the mission of God in the spirit of Mary MacKillop and Julian Tenison Woods, especially with those who are oppressed or pushed to the edges of society.
We are called to respond and confront unjust systems which perpetuate discrepancies of wealth, privilege and power, and which diminish the integrity of creation.
In all of this, we acknowledge the original custodians of the land and are challenged to live simply, travel lightly and make room for all.
The Josephite Justice Network (JJN) is an organised network of Sisters and lay Josephites across Australia and New Zealand, advocating for justice in our own communities and across our world.
- We stand in solidarity with those pushed to the fringes
- We lobby against exploitation and systemic injustice
- We build relationships with key leaders concerned about divisive politics
- We strengthen our listening relationship in support of the Uluru Statement from the Heart
- We respond actively to Earth’s ecological crisis by supporting Laudato Si’, the Laudato Si’ Movement and Laudate Deum
- We develop policies which promote just structures in our action and advocacy, especially for students in Josephite schools (JJAMM)
