As a Conference of Bishops our task is to continue the mission of Jesus Christ the Redeemer and to announce His Good News to all our people and to jointly exercise our pastoral office by promoting the religious betterment and welfare of all the people entrusted to our care.

The Conference accordingly will pursue these objectives by effectively promoting, fostering and protecting the interests of the Catholic religion and of the Catholic faithful and by safeguarding their freedom and rights. It will undertake charitable works as well as activities for justice, peace and human development in the interest of the larger society, based on the social doctrine of the Church.

It will foster the spirit of ecumenical communion and of inter-religious dialogue with the members of all other faiths and help make the Church a leaven of brotherhood and national harmony in our pluralistic society.

The conference will collaborate with other Bishops’ Conferences as with those of the  Federation of the Asian Bishops’ Conferences (FABC) of which it is a member, in matters of common interest to the Church
