Trip to Westminster

Prayer Vigil

God of tenderness and truth,

teach us to see as You see,

to love as You love,

to welcome as You welcome.

Make our community a shelter, a hearth,

a home for all who long to belong. 

‘The Courage to Stand as One’

Gathering outside the Home Office for our refugee memorial mass was a deeply moving experience. Under the theme of "Courage," we came together to pray for all those who have tragically lost their lives seeking safety.

Standing in front of the gates of power, the spiritual impact was profound. As we prayed for the deceased, all barriers dissolved—we stood united as one human family in the eyes of God, ensuring their dignity is never forgotten.

Equally impactful was the incredible community I discovered. Meeting so many people who share my exact passion and urgent need for change was inspiring. We brought our grief to the Home Office, but we left united, strengthened, and ready to fight for a more compassionate world.
