Catholic Social Teaching

Catholic social teaching (CST) is rooted in Scripture, formed by the wisdom of Church leaders, and influenced by grassroots movements. It is our moral compass, guiding us on how to live out our faith in the world.

Our faith calls us to love God and to love our neighbours in every situation, especially our sisters and brothers living in poverty. Following in the footsteps of Christ, we hope to make present in our unjust and broken world, the justice, love and peace of God.

At St. Theresa’s we support a small charity called EVC Uganda.  EVC Uganda raises funds to provide desperately poor children with an education in a loving, caring and supportive environment. Our children fundraise to help their latest project which is the building and development of a school in Uganda called St. Matia Mulumba.  Our efforts so far have helped to purchase a swing set for their primary provision as can be seen in the photographs.
