About the Theme
God of life, lead us to justice and peace
The theme of the assembly was inspired by the diversity of Asian contexts and by a growing sense of urgency to care for life and seek justice.
Please visit the resources section for a growing list of reflections on the assembly theme, offering a variety of testimonies on life, justice and peace from around the world.
Three sub themes indicate that simply praying, “God of life, lead us to justice and peace”, is not enough. Rather, God’s people are called to put prayer into action; called to live out their faith in hope and love.
