Given the heightened news focus on immigration, on this week's podcast we revisit 2 interviews on the topic of refugees.

First we'll hear from Western New York Catholic peace & justice columnist and Catholic Relief Services Fellow, Deacon Don Weigel. Last year he spent time with in Eastern Europe working with Syrian refugees (you can listen the original program here).

We'll also hear about the Catholic Charities Health Center on the West Side of Buffalo which provides various services for refugees here in our own community (the full program can be found here).

These and all of our podcasts are available on the radio page.
