Mon, Sep 25th 2017 08:00 am

On September 27, Pope Francis will launch the worldwide, two-year "Share the Journey" campaign calling on Catholics and the faithful to 'encounter' migrants and refugees in an effort to break down barriers of fear and suspicion and build bridges of understanding and hospitality. Catholic Charities USA (CCUSA), Catholic Relief Services (CRS) and the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) are part of a global network of Caritas organizations participating in the campaign. Together they have launched a new website ahead of and in support of the global "Share the Journey" campaign in support of migrants and refugees around the world. The new campaign website https://www.sharejourney.org offers ways in which people, parishes, schools and other groups can participate. "Share the Journey" is a call to prayer, to reflection and to action.
