A Day of Prayerful Witness
For over a decade, thousands of lives have hung in limbo. Every day of waiting strips people of hope, dignity, and a future.
Stonnington Community Uniting Church is Hosting a Day of Vigil as part of the #EndTheWaiting campaign.
The Campaign seeks to hold 100 Vigils in 100 Electorates over 100 days across Australia
The campaign seeks to urge the Australian Government to provide:
- A pathway to permanency for all asylum seekers, including those subjected to the Fast Track system
- Work rights for all asylum seekers while claims are processed
- One visa that extends until claims are processed – ending the bureaucratic nightmare of applying for a new visa every three to six months
Our Faith Call Us To More Than Compassion – It Calls Us to Action
As an Australian Church, we believe the Gospel calls us to welcome the stranger
“I was a stranger and you welcomed me.” (Matthew 25:35)
These aren’t just words for Sundays. They shape how we treat those seeking safety.
Please join us, with the MP for Chisholm Electorate, Carina Garland and bring prayer and public pressure together.
