World Refugee Day 2018
Posted: Tue, 19 Jun 2018 15:33
World Refugee Day is on 20th June. We pray for all those facing hardship, anxiety and danger as they are forced to seek refuge away from their homes, for the people who help them, and for our politicians, who need to find fair, caring and Christian solutions to the world wide refugee crisis, and the conflict and poverty at its root.
Speaking in support of the Caritas Share the Journey campaign, Pope Francis has encouraged "all people of good will to create ever new spaces for sharing" with refugees and migrants to create greater compassion, understanding and solidarity.
