The ACMRO Migrant and Refugee Kit 2019 is now available online
Pope Francis has chosen the theme, “It is not just about migrants”, for the 105th World Day of Migrant and Refugees, commemorated in Australia on Sunday 25 August 2019. Included in the Kit are stories, reflections and prayers to be used in preparation of and for Migrant and Refugee Sunday. We hope that the Migrant and Refugee Kit will assist parishes and schools in commemorating this important event.
