Holocaust Memorial Day holds profound significance for us as we reflect on the historical tragedy of the Holocaust. Recognising the immense suffering and loss endured by millions, including six million Jews, during this dark chapter of human history, we are called to bear witness to the inherent dignity of every person. In remembering the Holocaust, the Church emphasises the importance of promoting love, compassion, and understanding among diverse communities. It is an occasion for us to recommit to the principles of justice, peace, and solidarity, acknowledging the need to combat intolerance and discrimination in all its forms. By commemorating Holocaust Memorial Day, we strive to contribute to a world where the lessons of the past are not forgotten, and the collective responsibility to build a more just and compassionate society is embraced.
