The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) has published a brief resource, “The Two Feet of Love in Action.”
The bishops’ conference explained that the two feet are “two distinct, but complementary, ways we can put the Gospel in action in response to God’s love: social justice (addressing systemic, root causes of problems that affect many people) and charitable works (addressing immediate needs and providing emergency assistance).”
The resource, developed by the Secretariat of Justice and Peace, was released on March 27.
