     As I began my eye-opening journey with six other pilgrims,
     I wondered what life would look like a the United States—                       Tuesday, May 10th,
       Mexican Border. I knew about the influx of thousands of                         7:00-8:30 PM.
   migrants and their struggles, sacrifices, and hardships to cross

   into the U.S. to find a better life or to be reunited with family.
    Never did I imagine that we would welcome an exhausted,                            Pat and Mary Jo
   hungry, sweaty young man who had been trekking in the arid                       will share stories and
    desert for four days. He was a twenty-four-year-old migrant                       experiences about
       man, dressed in camouflage clothing, who had gotten
          separated from his group of twenty-six migrants.                               migrants and
       He now wanted to turn himself into the Border Patrol                              immigration
          because he could no longer continue his journey.                          from their March 14-19 trip to the Border.
      We gave him food, called the Border Patrol, and tried to
   assure him that we were there to help him. The Border Patrol
    did pick him up and probably deported him back to Mexico.                        Info/RSVP: Rita - rwaldref@dioceseofspokane.org
