Project Compassion 2026

As we begin this sacred season of reflection and renewal, we pause to consider the journey we are about to embark upon together - a journey of faith, compassion and love, where we’ll walk in solidarity with vulnerable communities around the world in pursuit of a brighter and more just future.

Every action that Catholic Parish of Kinglake Mernda Whittlesea takes this Lent brings us one step closer to that future - a future where everyone has clean water to drink, the tools to provide for their children’s education, and access to vital emergency support when they need it most.

Here is an Introduction Video, introducing you to the four stories of resilience and strength that lie at the heart of Project Compassion and offering a window into the transformative impact that our prayers and almsgiving can help to achieve.
