Odpowiedź Ewangelii miłosierdzia na sytuację migrantów - tematem Światowego Dnia Migranta i Uchodźcy w 2016
Temat tegorocznych obchodów podkreśla dwa aspekty. Jego pierwsza część - „Migranci i uchodźcy są dla nas wyzwaniem” - wskazuje na dramatyczną sytuację tak licznych ludzi zmuszonych do opuszczenia swoich krajów. Nieraz tragicznie kończą oni życie na morzu. Ojciec Święty nie chce, byśmy o tym zapominali. Jest to zgodne z jego słowami z bulli "Misericordiae vultus", ogłaszającej Rok Święty: „Nie wpadajmy w obojętność, która upokarza, w przyzwyczajenie, które usypia ducha i nie pozwala odkryć nowości, w cynizm, który niszczy. Otwórzmy nasze oczy, aby dostrzec biedę świata, rany tak wielu braci i sióstr pozbawionych godności” (15).

Australians urged to fight human trafficking, injustice
The Catholic Church of Australia is calling on its citizens not to be indifferent to human trafficking and take simple steps to combatting global injustice. The Australian Catholic Bishops’ Commission for Pastoral life (BCPL) and Australian Catholic Religious Against Trafficking in Humans (ACRATH) are calling for a day of prayer, reflection and action against human trafficking on 8 February, the Feast of St Josephine Bakhita, a Sudanese slave who was rescued and later became a Canossian nun, and was declared a Saint in 2000. Last year, the Vatican’s Pontifical Council for the Pastoral Care of Migrants and Itinerant People, the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace and the International Union of Superiors General, promoted the first “International Day of Prayer and Awareness against Human Trafficking”, or Bakhita Day, on Feb. 8.
