Its World Day for Migrants and Refugees today! #WDMR

This year, the day centers around the theme:
“Even just one of these children,” taken from Matthew 18, which places a specific focus on the protection, vulnerability, and rights of migrant and refugee minors.
September 27, 2026 at 9:32 PM
“Our first obligation as a Church is to embrace in a sustained, unwavering, prophetic, and compassionate way the immigrants who are suffering so deeply because of the oppression they are facing."

Full homily:
