Time: 6pm
Venue: St Monica’s Cathedral, Cairns
Refreshments: Light refreshments will follow the event.
Join us at St Monica’s Cathedral for Red November – Lighting the Darkness with Prayer, an evening of prayer, reflection and solidarity with Christians and people of faith around the world who experience discrimination, violence, oppression and persecution because of their faith.
Red November is an international initiative of Aid to the Church in Need, which sees churches and significant buildings illuminated in red as a visible sign of solidarity with those who suffer for their faith. St Monica’s Cathedral will be illuminated in red for this special occasion.
The evening will also feature members of Cairns’ Nigerian Catholic community, who will share personal insights into the realities faced by Christians in parts of the world where practising one’s faith can come at significant personal risk.
All are welcome to join us as we come together in prayer, unity and hop
