About the Event

Since WWII, forced displacement has been at its highest:   more than 65 million people and over 22 million refugees were displaced worldwide.

“The Kingdom of God is to be built with them [migrants] for without them it would not be the kingdom God wants.”-Pope Francis

You are invited to a forum to consider our future in the company of immigrants, refugees, welcomers, advocates, and questioners of all kinds.
