Let's celebrate World Migrants and Refugees Day!

Every one is welcome to just attend and/or share your cultural heritage by registering, bringing country of heritage food samples, games, dances, artifacts or a presentation of your country. We also encourage wearing traditional clothing to Mass and to the event!
