Children and families around the world need our help

Millions of Christian children are suffering the repercussions of Christian persecution. Growing up in war, conflict, or the threat of violence - they are collateral damage. With your help, ACN can provide vital child and family-focused projects to support them.

#TeamRed stories

Meet some members of #TeamRed who have been taking action to raise funds and awareness in their community to help Christian families suffering globally.

Parishes in Action

We are grateful for the support of our Catholic Bishops, our Parish Priests and the Catholic community to raise awareness for persecuted Christians via ACN’s #RedWednesday. We appreciate you theming your parish red with candles, flowers on the altar, lighting red, robing red and parishioners wearing red. Along with organising a #RedWednesday liturgy for the persecuted Church or taking on a Parish challenge for suffering young Christians.

#RedWednesday resources for your Parish including prayers, liturgies and bulletin information can be found here.
