Pope Leo continues to challenge us to search for new ways to approach the needs of migrants and refugees throughout the world — new ways that will place the dignity of the human person at the center of individual and social commitment.
We are called to follow Jesus here, even if He leads us on unfamiliar and difficult paths. He will enable us to encounter our brothers and sisters and walk with them, while we work together to find solutions to the strange and sometimes unprecedented problems of this emerging new epoch in human history.
One of the realities of our times is the enormous and rapid movement of peoples all over the world. It is hard to imagine how we can engage all the challenges we face, but we must face them together, with reverence for the dignity of human persons, human relationships, human communion - with confidence in the mysterious variety-in-unity that is destined to enrich the human family because we are all children of God.
