The US bishops in a pastoral reflection released yesterday called all Catholics to do what each of them can "to accompany migrants and refugees who seek a better life in the United States."
Titled "Living as a People of God in Unsettled Times," the reflection was issued "in solidarity with those who have been forced to flee their homes due to violence, conflict or fear in their native lands," said a news release from the US Conference of Catholic Bishops.
"To live as a people of God is to live in the hope of the Resurrection," said the reflection, which was approved by the USCCB Administrative Committee on the first day of a two-day meeting in Washington.
