World Refugee Day

Sister Doreen Glynn, CSJ recently volunteered at Annunciation House in El Paso. She will share some reflections on her time there on Monday, June 21, during an interfaith Zoom event marking World Refugee Day.

The hour-long program begins at 7 p.m. Among others participating are representatives of the Buddhist, Hindu, Jewish, and Protestant faiths. [The final list is still in formation.] Speakers will share selections from their sacred texts, prayers, and/or stories of what people of their faith are doing to help refugees.


No pre-registration is required. Here is the link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/81648352852
