World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims - Sunday, 15th November
6 Nov 2020
Parishes across the Archdiocese are asked to remember Road Traffic Victims on Sunday, 15th November, the World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims.
Praying for this intention, and alerting parishioners to it, provides an opportunity to remember a parent, son, daughter, brother, sister or friend who have lost their lives as the result of a road traffic collision. It is also a day to thank our emergency services and reflect on the tremendous burden and cost of this daily continuing disaster to families and communities.
Deaths, of course, are the most tragic, but many thousands are injured every day on our roads; Road traffic injuries leave behind shattered families and communities. The grief and distress experienced by these people is all the greater because many of the victims are young and many of the crashes could and should have been prevented.
Please take a few moments to pause and remember anyone you know who has either lost their life or who has suffered received life changing injuries as the result of a road traffic accident on this year’s World Day of Remembrance.
