Join the California Catholic Conference’s Novena for Migrants and Asylum Seekers at the US Border to pray for the migrants and asylum-seekers at the border now that Title 42 has expired and tens of thousands are expected at the southern U.S. Border each day.
Title 42 refers to the emergency health authority mandate from 2020 that allowed migrants at the U.S.-Mexico border to be turned away on the grounds of protecting public health. Now that the order has expired, the Biden administration has implemented new restrictions that ask migrants to apply for asylum.
Read the USCCB’s letter to the Biden Administration on the new migration policies here.
The Novena is available in English and Spanish, and resources are available on Catholic Social Teaching on Immigration.
