On April 4, Refugee Rights Day in Canada, the acting primate, Archbishop Anne Germond, issued an invitation to dioceses across the country to mark a Refugee Sunday at some point in the year.
For the second year, Alongside Hope (formerly PWRDF) is inviting dioceses and parishes across the country to mark a Refugee Sunday at a time in the year of their choosing. You are invited to do so as the global numbers of refugees and internally displaced persons (IDPs) continues to both increase and be at historic highs. It also comes at a time when borders are closing and support is being withdrawn for those seeking “life, liberty and the security of the person.”
