Bellarmine Chapel will once again host the seventh annual Share the Journey: A Concert for Compassion on Sept. 28th at 7:00pm.The concert will be live and livestreamed and will raise funds for four organizations on the front line of working with immigrants and refugees. This year’s concert’s feature performer will be Jesse Manibusan. The initial event was inspired by the 2-year global campaign called “Share the Journey” launched by Pope Francis in 2017 to heighten global awareness of the arduous journey facing migrants, immigrants, and refugees throughout the world, and to invite Christians to share the journey with them in a spirit of compassion and hope. The intent of the concert is to raise awareness of issues faced by immigrants, provide assistance to organizations working with migrants, and offer hope to all of us as we address these issues.
