Message & Prayer of Pope Francis for Migrants & Refugees

 “We are called to dream together, fearlessly, as a single human family, as companions on the same journey, as sons and daughters of the same earth that is our common home, sisters and brothers all.” cf. Fratelli Tutti, 8). 

 PRAYER  

 Holy, beloved Father, your Son Jesus taught us that there is great rejoicing in heaven whenever someone lost is found, whenever someone excluded, rejected, or discarded is gathered into our “we”, which thus becomes ever wider. 

 We ask you to grant the followers of Jesus, and all people of goodwill, the grace to do your will on earth. Bless each act of welcome and outreach that draws those in exile into the “we” of community and of the Church, so that our earth may truly become what you yourself created it to be: the common home of all our brothers and sisters. Amen.
