1.  Christ calls us to attend to those who suffer from mental illness and provide hope and healing.

2.  The scope and burden of mental illness in our society is enormous.

3.  Those suffering mental illness should not be stigmatized or judged. 

4.  The Church, health care professionals and scientific researchers should work together to improve mental health care.

5.  We must meet and attend to those in need where they are. 

6.  Those impacted by suicide need our compassionate response.
