"The promotion of justice has been integrated into traditional ministries and new ones, in pastoral work and social centers, in educating 'men and women for others,' in direct ministry with the poor."
"Our experience has shown us that our promotion of justice both flows from faith and brings us back to an ever deeper faith. So we intend to journey on towards ever fuller integration of the promotion of justice into our lives of faith, in the company of the poor and many others who live and work for the coming of God's kingdom."
-From the 34 th General Congregation of the Society of Jesus, Rome , 1995
