Second Sunday of Lent
As Christians we are called to walk with those who are in need. This week's story introduces us to Teneille, from Derby in Western Australia. Limited job opportunities, low family literacy levels and poor health and housing are some of the issues affecting poor school performance amongst Indigenous children in the area.
Teneille participates in a program supported by Caritas Australia that is empowering children to attend school, have healthy and nutritious food and improve the school performance amongst the area's children.
Your donation to Caritas Australia's Project Compassion helps to work towards the goal of ensuring primary education for all children.
