2022 CATHOLIC MISSION WORLD MISSION MONTH APPEAL
The 2022 Catholic Mission World Mission Month Appeal, was celebrated at a Diocese of Wollongong school launch at St Thomas More Catholic Church, Ruse. Students and staff from every school across the diocese gathered in music and prayer, with Bishop Brian Mascord, Peter Hill, Director of Schools; Fr Brian Lucas, Catholic Mission National Director, to pledge their commitment to the annual school appeal and kick goals against poverty.
Kiara Jakobsson and Pratha Chauhan (Year 8) discovered that children in Ethiopia had to construct their own sporting equipment. In particular, the soccer ball, created from plastic bags and socks knotted together. Kiara and Pratha enjoyed the experience of learning more about Mission Month and meeting with Bishop Brian Mascord. Thank you to Ms Elizabeth Ursino for supervising and transporting the students to the launch.
