VELEZ, Consuelo et al. The forced displacement: a challenge to suburban pastoral. Franciscanum [online]. 2014, vol.56, n.161, pp.221-261. ISSN 0120-1468.

In response to situations of violence and armed conflict as those present in the Colombian reality, the church's pastoral commitment should be effective. Then, the suburban pastoral (periphery pastoral), that promotes mercy and compassion as principles of its action, can respond to this reality more comprehensively. This article inquires about this situation and seeks to offer some clues in order to make pastoral action in the big cities, taking into account the reality of displacement. Hopefully, the urban pastoral will be like the Good Samaritan portrayed in the Gospel: it will stop along the way to help those who have fallen as a result of violence in Colombia.
