Thank you for today's meditation. I'm reminded of the "flight into Egypt" when Jesus' parents became refugees in another country to escape the violence of Herod against baby boys. If "Christians" could appreciate the desperation and terror of Joseph and Mary as they fled, perhaps (haha) there could be sympathy for others in similar circumstances.

Our church has worked with 2 migrant families. One father was kidnapped by ICE. This is terrifying for the families. With the help of other churches, we raised funds for a lawyer to find him, and we are praying for a return to his family by Thanksgiving. No criminal record, and he was working 6 days a week. We are the Romans in the Gospels, the chronically violent Romans. I stopped calling myself a Christian 10 years ago. American Christian has become an oxymoron
