Cardinal Blase Cupich of Chicago has welcomed Pope Francis’ message and is taking to heart the Holy Father’s call for Catholics to develop rightly formed consciences.
In an interview with Vatican Media, the Cardinal expressed gratitude for the encouragement voiced by the Pope in his letter to the Bishops of the United States, in which he expresses his support for their efforts to protect the rights and dignity of migrants.
