Compassion is the dynamic force of all pastoral engagement. Without it, Salvation is impossible. With it, the salvation of the human person both spiritually and materially is assured. It is a deep natural, philosophical, theological, and religious value. The proper assimilation of this value, with all its implications, marks a turning point in one's life. It opens up one, not only to love and to be loved, but also to see things, not as they are, but as they should be.

A crusade of socio-political wellbeing realized through politics of compassion.
