WORLD DAY OF MIGRANTS AND REFUGEES.
Every year, the last Sunday of September, The Church celebrates the World Day of Migrants and Refugees (WDMR). Its an opportune time to show care for diverse vulnerable migrants and refugees who are moving, to offer prayers for them as they encounter numerous challenges, and to raise awareness about the prospects that migration can bring.
The message of World Day of Migrants and Refugees, encourages local communities to embrace, understand and acknowledge immigrants and refugees as fellow humans. As Matthew 25:35 states, "I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me." This day invites us to acknowledge the holy existence in individuals who take shelter in our nation.
Answering the Call

Understanding the hopes and weaknesses of immigrants and refugees is of great significance, as emphasized by the World Day of Migrants and Refugees 2023. By providing them with aid and respect, we are following in the footsteps of Jesus who showed empathy and hospitality to everyone.
Let us answer the call of World Day of Migrants and Refugees 2023 by embracing its teachings. We must tear down fear and bias, and welcome those in search of a safe haven and a brighter future. Through this act, we fulfil our Christian obligation to extend love and mercy to the most vulnerable among us. In so doing, we embody the life-changing message of Christ's love and acceptance.
