In April, we pray with Pope Francis for the spread of peace and non-violence, through a decreasing use of weapons by both states and citizens.
‘All can work together to build a more peaceful world, starting from the hearts of individuals and relationships in the family, then within society and with the environment, and all the way up to relationships between peoples and nations.’
– Pope Francis
Our focus for April
- Into our world, so riddled with pain and conflict, comes the redemption of the Cross and the joy of the Resurrection. As Holy Week arrives, let us pray with fierce and joyful hope for our world, allowing our faith in the risen Lord to inform and influence our concrete action to change and help our sisters and brothers in need.
- If you’ve been giving up your favourite little treats this Lent, don’t forget to put what you saved to good use! Every penny, pound and prayer you put in your Red Box helps missionaries ignite God’s love around the world! You can donate online here>>
- We wish you and the people you love a happy and holy Eastertide. Please join us during April and beyond to give, act and pray for missionaries and mission around the globe.
