On September 27, Pope Francis will officially announce a two-year global migration awareness campaign entitled Share the Journey. The campaign website at https://www.sharejourney.org/ has a parish toolkit (https://www.crs.org/resource-center/global-migration-campaign-parish-toolkit-week-prayer-and-action) with resources for the October 7 Week of Prayer and Action that officially launches the campaign. These include:
We hope your parish will join Pope Francis, Caritas International is, United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, Catholic Charities USA, and Catholic Relief Services to walk in prayer and support with the millions of God’s children who flee war, persecution and poverty. Let’s all Share the Journey.
Mobile Stations of the Cross, called “One on the Journey: A Solidarity Prayer Walk,” are available on loan to parishes around the diocese.
Please Contact Kent Ferris at [email protected] or call (563) 888-4211 to reserve the traveling prayer.

Everyone in the Diocese has the opportunity to responds to Pope Francis two year global migration awareness campaign, by hosting a Share the Journey Yours to Mine Table Conversation.
