In the southern hemisphere, it is often celebrated during the Pentecost season. Your communities are invited to choose the dates that would be appropriate for your context.

Fri, Mar 6 @ 6:00PM - Sat, Mar 7 @ 8:00 AM, St. Mary's Parish, 5251 Joyce Street There are so many of God’s beloved children living in physical and spiritual poverty with no one to support them or show them the dignity and love that they so desperately need. The annual Catholic Street Missionaries (CSM) SLEEP OUT invites parish and non-parish members to make a bold and courageous decision to join us in SLEEP OUT.. You will be making a true sacrifice by experiencing what it’s like to be homeless and spend one night outside in the cold. Participants will be given a link to their own personalized page where they can ask their community to make a donation in supporting them to sleep outside for the night. The money raised will go directly to Catholic Street Missionaries and be used to bring resources to our homeless brothers and sisters in the streets of downtown Vancouver. Change starts with us. Are you up for the challenge? CSM will be at St Anthony's Parish on 28 Feb and 1 Mar. For more information https://beholdvancouver.org/events/sleep-out
