Preparations for the 2017 Christmas Bowl have begun. 

The difference your Christmas Bowl gift made last year is remarkable. Did you know that you helped to create a climate of compassion for refugees in Australia by supporting the Australian Churches Refugee Taskforce (ACRT), an Act for Peace initiative? 

The ACRT was established to promote a shared Christian vision of compassion and hospitality for asylum seekers and refugees. Last year the ACRT was a driving force behind the successful #LetThemStay campaign. It created a new, more compassionate attitude to refugees and people seeking safety in Australia.

Once again your assistance is needed. The very same refugees are once more in fear of being deported.

Give now to help us confront injustice together.
