Our broken family.

If we turn on the TV or listen to the radio we hear so many stories that highlight how broken our world family is.
​Wars, fighting, fear and a celebration of power, status  and money surround us.

God calls us to build God's Kingdom on earth, and to live as a world family.
​
We need to help rebuild  broken relationships.

Pope Francis in his message for the World Day of Migrants and Refugees, 2017 said:
Picture
​“Do not tire of courageously living the Gospel,
​which calls you to recognize and welcome the Lord Jesus among the smallest and most vulnerable.”


Picture

​Spend some time thinking about the smallest and most vulnerable people in your community and the world community.  Here are some ideas to get you started:
Picture
“God has made the earth and all that it contains for all to share. The earth’s goods must be divided fairly and this right of everyone to a just share comes first. All other rights must help, not block, this basic right of every human being.” 
Populorum Progressio, Pope Paul VI, 1967

What can I do about building family?


We are called to help build bridges and mend relationships.

We can do this by:

Seeing God in others, no matter who it is

Living a life full of love

Giving freely of ourselves to those in need

Being good friends

Growing healthy relationships

Sharing what we have

Meeting people without judgement

Seeing the beauty in every human being

Being able to forgive and be forgiven


We are part of a 'we' a world family... 
I am not better than you,
​you are not better than me,
we are just children of God."


"

2 Corinthians 6:18
"And I will be a father to you, And you shall be sons and daughters to Me,"
​says the Lord Almighty.

Videos that explain more about the refugee crisis.

Below are some videos that explain what a refugee is and show some of their experiences. Some of the stories are hard to watch so check them out first before sharing them with your family.
​Discuss how you would want to be treated if this was your family.  What are some ways that you can help those in our world family who are refugees?
