What the Church Teaches About Immigration — In this video, Bishop Frank Schuster explains the Catholic Church’s teachings on immigration. He highlights that the Church first upholds the right not to migrate—recognizing that many people are forced to leave their homes due to life-threatening circumstances. While supporting a government's right to secure its borders, the Church also emphasizes the moral call to welcome those in need. Drawing on Scripture and Catholic tradition, Bishop Schuster reminds us that our duty as Christians is not to ask for papers, but to respond with compassion. He invites viewers to learn more through the provided resources.
