Appeal for help with activities for migrants and refugees

From our Diakonia group: “Today, Migration Sunday, we ask you to consider getting involved in our various activities for and with migrants. The needs vary all the time, and can include helping with children’s activities, social and cultural activities, language coaching, assisting residents to integrate into life in Luxembourg, and the meal service.

Details are regularly published on this website under Engagement -Monoplus; you can contact Caren at as.catholic.lu@gmail.com.

There is a particular need for volunteer help with the mobile library: donations of children’s and adult books and dictionaries in French; contact Marijane at marijane@pt.lu.”

Christmas in a shoebox 2019

Operation Christmas Child (Christmas in a Shoebox) is the world’s largest Christmas project of its kind.  It uses gift-filled shoeboxes to demonstrate God’s love in a tangible way to children in need around the world. 

Last year the Luxembourg team collected 1.700 boxes, 455 of which were collected through our International English-speaking community.  A big thank you to all who contributed and a huge challenge to see how well we can do this year ! 

You can help by: packing a box, donating bulk contents for boxes, ‘buying’ a packed box, donating money.  For further information feel free to talk to people from our team at the ‘Shoebox stand’ at the back of the church through the month of October.

Further information can be found in the presentation below.
