Vatican Releases the New Theme of the 110th World Day of Migrants and Refugees to be Celebrated in September
“God walks with His people”
Theme of the 110th World Day of Migrants and Refugees
The 110th World Day of Migrants and Refugees will be celebrated on Sunday, 29 September 2024, with the theme “God walks with His people”.
The Message for the occasion will address the itinerant dimension of the Church with a particular focus on our migrant brothers and sisters, a contemporary icon of the journeying Church.
It is a path to be undertaken in a synodal way, overcoming all threats and obstacles, in order to reach our true homeland together. During this journey, wherever people find themselves, it is essential to recognize the presence of God who walks with His people, assuring them of His guidance and protection at every step. Yet it is equally essential to recognize the presence of the Lord, Emmanuel, God-with-us, in every migrant who knocks at the door of our hearts and offers an opportunity for encounter.
