FavoritesThe UCA Justice and International Mission Unit advocates on a number local, national and international issues. One of the areas of our work is advocating for justice for refugees and asylum seekers. There is no question about the Christian response to asylum seekers and refugees. The Church is called to be a place of welcome. As faithful disciples we are to provide care and comfort to those who come to this land as strangers, seeking safety. The Uniting Church advocates for a just response to the needs of refugees that recognises Australias responsibilities as a wealthy global citizen, upholds the human rights and safety of all people, and is based on just and humane treatment, including non-discriminatory practices and accountable transparent processes. --------------------------- To keep in touch with our work on refugees and asylum seekers, please join the Vic/Tas Uniting for Refugees Network by emailing [email protected].
