Our values
Christian-Catholic principles
The principles that determine our working practise are fundamental anchored in the teachings of Jesus Christ from the New Testament. His compassion and his interaction with those in need in his time is the measure we use to guide us in our work with the people requiring our support today.
His humanity and his reverence for life is our starting point for respectful and positive dealings with people. Jesus`s relationship to God as the Father of all things leads us to respect and to value all individuals with truth and honesty.
In our thinking and in our actions we try to follow the example Jesus has set for us, as individuals and as an organization.
