Catholic Identity
October is Mission Month.
The theme for this year is, "One in Christ, United in Mission."
Chosen by Pope Leo XIV, this theme carries deep significance as 2026 marks 100 years since the establishment of World Mission Sunday by Pope Pius XI.
This unity calls us to see one another as sisters and brothers, working together to bring the Good News to life in every corner of the world. In a world often marked by division and isolation, mission invites us to build bridges of compassion, solidarity, and hope.
As one body in Christ, we are called to journey together, to listen, to serve, and to share the love that transforms hearts and communities. Whether near or far, each act of faith and generosity strengthens our communion and reveals the face of Christ among us.
To connect with this year's theme at St Joseph's, we will have a social justice action of collecting non-perishable food items to donate to Moira Shire Food Share.
We are asking all families to please donate an item of food and to place it into the trolley in the foyer of the admin building. Our aim is to fill the trolley! Items will be collected for the next 2 weeks before announcing the total number of items during assembly in Week 4.
We kindly ask for your support in promoting this cause and encouraging the meaning of this action to assist the people and families in our own community.
