  • Migration - The New Exodus. (Barbara Schwarz, OP, of the Sisters of St. Dominic of Amityville, N.Y.)

"One does not seek to be a refugee.
Desparation
Hunger
Violence
Safety
Are the driving force.
A sense of possiblity
Moves people
In solidarity
Despite the cost of smugglers
The dangers of the journey
Fear for the little ones
In faith they move
With hope."
