This year’s Racial Justice Sunday falls on 13 February 2022. The theme is “In the Image and Likeness of God” celebrating different presentations of the Holy Family from different countries and cultures (see gallery below).
The theme builds on that of the previous year’s Racial Justice Sunday ‘A Time to Act’, which reflected on the importance of everyone recognising themselves, their race, their culture and their history in the life of the Church.
The aim, in 2022, is to continue these conversations about how we see others in the “Image and Likeness of God”.
