MIGRATIONS IN OUR COMMON HOME Causes, Effects & Responses
Since 1984 the SMA has hosted an annual Summer School in Dromantine, Newry, Co Down. It began as a means of providing ongoing formation for SMA missionaries home on leave from Africa, a way of keeping up with developments in theology, spirituality and the social teaching of the Church. As time went by the Summer School broadened its scope to welcome, not just SMA’s, but also lay people and members of other religious congregations. This year due to the Pandemic the event has, for the first time moved online.
The Summer School aims to provide Religious and interested individuals and groups with relevant, high-quality, evidence-based knowledge and insight on aspects of present environmental-socio-political matters in a faith context, in order to support their engagement with the public and secular sphere. Opening Prayer: The Pope’s Prayer
