  • Catholic officials again strongly criticize Trump’s revised order on refugees

    Catholic officials again strongly criticize Trump’s revised order on refugees

    • Mar 9, 2017

    President Trump’s new executive order states that it is designed “to protect the nation from terrorist activities by foreign nationals admitted to the United States.” Catholic agencies serving refugees see this as mere subterfuge for anti-Muslim discrimination and not based in reality. They oppose this order as they opposed the last one which was blocked by U.S. courts as unconstitutional.

  • Catholic official applauds suspension of refugee ban

    • Feb 12, 2017

    • Jan 27, 2017

    Sean Callahan, CEO of Catholic Relief Services, the international charity branch of the USCCB, argued that if President Donald Trump’s “big, beautiful wall” is in fact built, people will find ways to “go over, under and around it,” and that it would be better to invest the money the government is planning to use to fund the wall in development programs overseas.

    CRS board chair wants to share agency’s work more widely among Catholics

    • Dec 20, 2016

    The mainstream media has largely ignored the humanitarian work of Catholic Relief Services and its partner agencies directed toward refugees in the Middle East according to Maronite Bishop Gregory J. Mansour. The incoming chairman of the board at CRS believes it’s time this changed.

  • Catholic Church not a force for good? ‘I refute it thus’!

    Catholic Church not a force for good? ‘I refute it thus’!

    • Dec 10, 2016

    For many people in the developing world, the Catholic Church is the only voice of civil society that isn’t corrupt or driven by self-interest. It’s often the difference between people being fed or starving to death, or between being treated for their illnesses or dying of neglect.
