After retreat, the Major Superiors made a pilgrimage to the Holy Door. A powerful symbolic act of conversion and renewal before they discuss global challenges. Asking for God's mercy to guide their discernment. #Jesuits #MMS #Rome #Pilgrimage

Grateful for the delegation from El Paso that visited with Pope Leo to share messages from migrants in the US. May we as a church speak out against injustice & stand with people in our communities who are living in fear and terror as they continue to be criminalized and targeted
Today, with @BishopSeitz and members of the immigrant community, @HopeBorder met Pope Leo and gave him messages and a video from those fearing Trump’s mass deportations. ‘The church cannot stay silent before injustice. You stand with me. And I stand with you’, the pope said.

Tonight we were thrilled to announce the establishment of the Sciuto Institute for Teaching Excellence, made possible by a $16M gift commitment (the largest in SLUH history) from John Schaefer ‘70 and his wife Pamela Zilly. SITE honors Matt Sciuto ‘70 and his 39-year legacy of teaching and coaching at SLUH.
Initiating a bold new chapter in Jesuit education, SITE will position SLUH as a national leader in classroom teaching for generations to come. It will ensure the best classroom experience for students through a range of resources for faculty to grow in their subject expertise and approach to pedagogy. Learn more: sluh.org/SITE

Just to be clear, ICE is not just targeting criminals or even people who entered illegally. People like Carlos entered legally and were following the legal process. This new tactic is trying to criminalize, detain, and deport without due process. I call that injustice
The Trump administration has made sweeping changes to the country’s immigration system.
In recent months, ICE agents have been arresting migrants outside courtrooms and courthouses. Many of them are being seized immediately after immigration judges had terminated their cases, often at the request of the federal government.
@WmBrangham speaks to @StrassburgerSJ, a Jesuit Priest who serves migrants on both sides of the border, for more.
