The journey towards insuring the basic
human rights and dignity for all of God's people has been a fragile
and complex one.
Since the later half of the twentieth
century, much progress has been made in the protecting of basic
human rights and human dignity and also in an expansion in the
understanding and applications of these concepts.
Despite our growth in understanding
the needs for protecting the human rights and dignity for all comes
under many forms of threats - both indirect and direct.
The goal of this ecumenical and
non-partisan Covenant for Human
Rights and Dignity Scroll is to provide an opportunity for all
peoples of good will to recommit themselves to the cause for Human
Rights and Dignity.
We also wish to reach out and invite
our young people - the generation of the future to embrace the work
of previous generations to build a contemporary understanding of the
importance of Human Rights and Dignity.
It is our hope that this traveling
Scroll will remind society of it sacred Stewardship entrusted to us
by God.
This Scroll shall bear the names of
all who are committed to the work of protecting the Human Rights and
Dignity of all God's Children.
