(ANS – Mexico) – January 2025 – On January 28, the Youth Ministry Delegates from the United States West Province (SUO), Fr. Fabián Cárdenas, SDB, and the Guadalajara Province Mexico (MEG), Fr. Agapito Francisco Espinoza, SDB, convened Salesians and lay people from both provinces to share the situation of migrants on the Mexico-US border. The purpose of the meeting, which took place digitally, was to analyze current challenges; share experiences of caring for migrants; and establish concrete strategies for responding to the tightening of immigration policies resulting from the US government’s recent immigration regulations. Emphasized during the meeting was the importance of strengthening the support network for migrants, the need to forge alliances with other institutions, and improving communication to optimize assistance to these people in vulnerable situations. Among the points that emerged were the coordination of efforts between provinces to provide timely information; the promotion of a Salesian network specialized in the care of migrants; and the encouragement of Salesian missionary volunteers to offer their services to migrants. Participants at this meeting agreed that there is a great need for a coordinated response, including raising awareness in local communities, promoting volunteerism, and creating welcoming spaces.
