Catholic Social Teaching (CST) has been described as the Church’s
‘hidden treasure’. It is the sum of the Church’s
teaching on social justice issues and is an essential part of the
Catholic faith. ‘We cannot be called truly Catholic unless
we hear and heed the Church’s call to serve those in need
and work for justice and peace’. The 1971 Synod of Bishops
said that ‘Action on behalf of justice and participation in
the transformation of world [are] … a constitutive dimension
of the preaching of the Gospel’.
