Because for some reason you are under attack, you cannot feed your family or seek medical care for the injury your daughter sustained when the last bomb fell, because you cannot possibly continue to live where you have done so for your entire life. So, naturally, you flee.pic.twitter.com/ePUbm9wYuL

A person's dignity does not depend on them being a citizen, a migrant, or a refugee. Saving the life of someone fleeing war and poverty is an act of humanity.

We encounter Jesus in those who are poor, rejected, or refugees. Do not let fear get in the way of welcoming our neighbour in need.
