Immigration
Funding and Supporting Ministry Work
Many of our sponsored ministries and individual sister ministries help those facing immigration in our world. Examples include Taller de Jose, a member of our mission network in Chicago that offers companionship and personal attention to people who have difficulty finding their way in a complex social system, and Bethany House of Hospitality, which offers housing and support services to young immigrant women as they journey to independence and which several of our sisters volunteer with.
Regular Immersion
The congregation supports sisters, associates, and staff who desire to travel for service immersion trips to the US/Mexico border. These trips allow individuals to assist with a variety of needed tasks such as assisting with childcare, making food, and distributing donations, while also having regular conversation with the individuals most affected by immigration issues. These meaningful encounters deepen our understanding and commitment to our siblings who are facing immigration.
