National Lament- a Week of Prayer and Prophetic Presence during Ascension to Pentecost Our Lament We lament the lack of compassion for people seeking #asylum in Australia We lament the denial of human dignity and freedom We lament the indifference We lament our inability to turn the tide Our Challenge The other is no longer a brother or sister to be loved, but simply someone who disturbs my life and my comfort… In this globalized world, we have fallen into globalized indifference. We have become used to the suffering of others: it doesn’t affect me; it doesn’t concern me; it’s none of my business! #PopeFrancis Our Prayer We beg forgiveness for our indifference to so many of our brothers and sisters. God, we ask your pardon for those who are complacent and closed amid comforts which have deadened their hearts; we beg your forgiveness for those who by their decisions on the global level have created situations that lead to these tragedies. Forgive us, Lord! #PopeFrancis Catholic Religious Australia
