Dignity of the Human Person

Human Dignity

Laxmi With Water Taps At School

We believe that every person is made in God’s image. We believe that every person has inherent dignity and every life is sacred.

The innate dignity of each person is the foundation and inspiration of our vision for a just and compassionate world.

We see the image of God in every person, no matter their circumstance. The women, men and children most vulnerable to extreme poverty and injustice should not be hindered from living a life equal to their dignity.
