Sept. 27 marked Pope Francis? launch of a global campaign "Share the Journey" to support migrants around the world. Through this campaign, our Church hopes to dispel widespread fear of newcomers and to raise awareness of why so many people are compelled to leave their homes at this time in history. We want to inspire communities to build relationships with refugees and immigrants, and to love their neighbors in the U.S. and around the world in a variety of ways.
You can help your diocese, parish, school or organization participate in the ?Share the Journey? campaign along with Pope Francis, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB), Catholic Relief Services (CRS), Catholic Charities USA (CCUSA), and the Church?s global charitable network, Caritas Internationalis. In collaboration with the annual celebration of Respect Life Month in October, the U.S. Catholic bishops invite your participation in a kickoff week of prayer and action for ?Share the Journey,?
