Mission Month
The Arrupe Centre in Cambodia is the focus mission for 2020. It was established by Bishop Kike in 2001 to help empower children and young adults with disabilities. At the heart of this centre is the restoration of the dignity and rights of those affected by landmines by giving them the opportunity to study, work and rebuild their lives. Bishop Kike wears a unique crucifix called the Disabled Christ.
On Friday the 30th October (Week 3) we will be hosting a crazy sock day where students are invited to wear crazy socks to school and bring in an optional gold coin donation.
Catholic Mission receives our financial assistance to support initiatives that promote human dignity and our participation in outreach presents valuable lessons in resilience and compassion and reminds us that we are part of a global Catholic community.
