A Pastoral Note to Migrants from the Catholic Bishops in Michigan

On Monday, January 27, the Catholic bishops of Michigan issued a pastoral message offering their prayerful support to migrants, refugees, and all those seeking humanitarian asylum in our communities. This message echoes similar messages shared recently by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops about the Church’s commitment to defending the sanctity and God-given dignity of every human life, regardless of nationality or immigration status.

The message is accompanied by a set of frequently asked questions about the Church's teaching regarding immigration, a prayer for migrants and refugees, and social media graphics. All resources, in English and Spanish are available at micatholic.org/immigration.
