We SDP believe that we are taken into the relationship of the loving Trinity. It encourages and enables us to a spirituality of encounter, relationship and dialogue.
Our faith can give us a cheerful serenity within the challenges of our everyday life. It gives us the power to an ever new reconciliation with one another and urges us to a freedom that at the same time takes over responsibility.
We are convinced that our God wants life for everyone, life to the full. In him we acknowledge the dignity of every person and all life and are aware of our responsibility for the preservation of creation. Our conviction enkindles within us a deep joy of life and the courage to dare new things again and again.
