Call to Action

Description of Immediate Needs

Our shared commitment to witnessing the gospel mandate of Matthew 25 compels us to unite in addressing the humanitarian crisis along the Southern California border. As women religious working together with our lay colleagues, we have a unique opportunity to alleviate the suffering of the hundreds migrants and refugees currently residing along the Tijuana/Mexicali corridor.

"Solidarity must be concretely expressed at every stage of the migratory experience – from departure through journey to arrival and return. This is a great responsibility, which the Church intends to share with all believers and men and women of goodwill, who are called to respond to the many challenges of contemporary migration with generosity, promptness, wisdom, and foresight, each according to their own abilities." - Pope Francis
