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.
In the text, the Pope states he has “followed closely the major crisis that is taking place in the United States with the initiation of a program of mass deportations.” In this regard, he commends the Bishops’ efforts stressing that Christian love demands recognition of the dignity of all people, regardless of legal status.
