For many families across our Diocese, Nepal is more than a distant country. We invite our parishes, schools and the wider community to unite in prayer and generosity.
The 2026 theme “Love Protects” recognises that safeguarding is a practical expression of Christian love.
The Catholic Diocese of Cairns is delighted to welcome Andrea Obeyesekere as our new Executive Leader for Diocesan Mission and Ministries.
Join families from across the diocese for a day of inspiration, prayer, fellowship and fun in an idyllic setting.
