Let’s keep in our prayers the protection of the children who for some reasons are crossing over the border, sometimes on their own, from the Mexican border to the Americas. Let’s pray for their safety and for the parents who have made the decision to allow them to cross over knowing well the passage may be dangerous. :kiss4you::kiss4you:🎉🎉

What is bad is that they are being LIED TO by someone saying the US will not deport these children. The parents are not making an informed decision and may lose their kids entirely to the system and maybe to coyotes so I pray they stay home and do what they can until it changes.🙂 I do pray that their lives (name removed by moderator)rove where they are, until it becomes safe to come across the border legally and safely. I know that may not be popular but the parents don’t know the truth and are being lied to by evil coyotes.
 
The parents should be caught and jailed for child neglect, and then neither they nor their children should ever be let in this country again.
 
These “children” are coming from El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras- and are crossing Mexico before illegally entering the U.S. I put children in quotes because 2 out of 3 are in their upper teens. Most aren’t immunized and many of the younger ones are accompanied by their moms- some of whom are pregnant. They aren’t alone!! There are drug cartel members coming in, too…and drugs. Gov. Perry asked the U.S. government to step up border patrol and to help control the influx of illegals- but has now taken matters into the state’s hands at a cost of $1.3 million a week!! Today, some of the angry drug cartel members began shooting into the U.S. They are doing this to intimidate the border control agents and additional personnel guarding the Texas border. As for the children- they are being cared for in receiving centers- and sent immediately back if they’re Mexican. But it is very hard to know what to do with the others. Currently they are housed at army bases and other government buildings. In El Paso, the Catholic church is furnishing diapers, WiFi, food, cots, etc. and the hospital is caring for the sick. It is a mess- and I have NO idea what can be done. We can certainly pray for the children, as their situation is much like slave trade. I would also pray for the LEGAL U.S. residents who are in danger from these immigrants, the gun fire, disease, drug dealers, etc. They did nothing to deserve this.
 
Considering that the nation is approaching a below replacement level fertility rate, we may need all the children we can get.
 
I pray that they will safely be escorted back to their own countries.

so true JimG, what is going on with the fertility rate in the US? Is it still 2.1 child per household? With fewer marriages and still less children we are and will be in trouble in the near future.

It is 1.8 now, the highest rate is Hispanic women born out of the US. Black women have an almost 80% of kids born out of wedlock, but they are still being born. The problem isn’t always the number of kids but how many are productive citizens. If you have a great many children but they die( illness or violent ends) or are in prison they can not contribute to the family or society. Caucasian and Asian are less also.

I feel it isn’t always numbers but the quality of children being produced so we need to strengthen the family unit.Get people married into stable marriages and then worry about children.

The more women have careers and end up having fewer kids because they are aging out of fertility. Not always the case, but is a part of it.

This is like saying that a plant that needs water needs to be flooded daily with water. Try that and most plants develop root rot and die. Our country does needed limited highly controlled immigration. It does not need nor will it ever need a “come one, come all” policy. The best way to help a would-be illegal immigrant is to help them in their own country. Not only is it better for them, it is far far cheaper.
 
“According to the border health care official, area hospitals have diagnosed cases of infectious diarrhea, multi-drug resistant tuberculosis, scabies, chickenpox, and growing numbers of sexually transmitted diseases.”

Its not only an issue with sovereignty but health, economy, employment. Should have never happened and its a direct result of this administration and those such as Cantor who agree’d with this administration. Its a major problem which is minimized.
 
Because children are involved in this rampant lawlessness, the hard cold facts of this situation are being ignored and the harm being perpetrated to all of society is not being considered.

I just read a report that $2 mil has been set aside by the DOJ for the legal representation of these minors. Within the past eight months border patrol estimates say tens of thousands of minors have crossed the border along with many pregnant women. On another note, it has been reported (not in the MSM) that rogue Mexican troops illegally crossed our borders in AZ. Per the U.S. Constitution, an armed military that crosses our border is the definition of an invasion. But it was then reported no further action would be considered.

I cannot believe the most rudimentary role of government - the protection of our borders is being ignored. Sleep on, America! And while the sympathy flows for children, and I will be one of those praying for them, I’ll also be praying for Americans as our national sovereignty is destroyed and the globalists advance their socialist agenda. :mad:

And think of this…if HH is correct and the global economy is about to collapse as Pope Francis said, what will you and your family do?
 
Jesus and his family were immigrants to Egypt. Let us continue to care and pray for all immigrants.

They are trying to set theses kids up in an abandoned nursing home, to what end? They are NOT immigrants, they are illegal children that bad people have foisted upon us saying “be good people and take care of them”. Be the better person is a good idea but no family will take in people to their home until their home collapses under the weight of it do they? No, they don’t they give what they can, maybe a bit more but not so their own family is begging in the streets.

ONCE WE ALL ARE POOR WHO WILL CONTRIBUTE TO “the cause”? I cdon’t know but if there are no business no one works and provides for anyone.

They older kids are violent and preying upon the optyhers, just as in prison. There will b e more sexual abuse and more disease all could be stopped immediately if the GOVERNMENT did their job which is to protect OUR people first, then extend. We give to charity, volunteer and do much for others so I don’t just talk I walk the walk but enough is enough!:eek:

VioletteW, in your Catholic Study you should know about having compassion and mercy to those immigrant children. The mercy and compassion we dole out today, will be doled out to us in Heaven. No compassion no heaven. Read Mt. 25; 34-41 34 "Then the King will say to those on His right, 'Come, you who are blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. 35 ‘For I was hungry, and you gave Me something to eat ; I was thirsty, and you gave Me something to drink ; I was a stranger, and you invited Me in; 36 naked, and you clothed Me; I was sick, and you visited Me; I was in prison, and you came to Me.’ 37 "Then the righteous will answer Him, 'Lord, when did we see You hungry, and feed You, or thirsty, and give You something to drink ? 38 'And when did we see You a stranger, and invite You in, or naked, and clothe You? 39 ‘When did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?’ 40 "The King will answer and say to them, ‘Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of these brothers of Mine, even the least of them, you did it to Me.’ 41 "Then He will also say to those on His left, 'Depart from Me, accursed ones, into the eternal fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels ; My underline added.:curtsey: 🎉
 
If one reads scriptures/Bible one will see that Our Blessed Mother while pregnant escaped persecution in her land and later fled to Egypt with Jesus, her child. They IMMIGRATED to Egypt till it was safe to return to Judea. They were immigrants. So we should care for the immigrants because we will never know if Our Lord may be hiding among them.:heaven:
 
Many of those coming to America are coming from Central American countries and are being told by ‘coyotes’ those who make money passing them over, that ones the children make it to America that they will become citizens and will remain there. It is all lies and the coyotes are making mass fortunes with these lies. This doesn’t excuse the parents from sending these children into danger, but it shows the length perhaps of their desperations to make a better life for them and their children.
 
If safety is the only concern, the solution is simple. Reopen Ellis Island, except maybe open it on the southern border. Allow anyone in so long as they don’t have a contagious disease.

I know your intentions mean well and absolutely no one is disputing Scripture or our moral obligation, but I find these kinds of posts do not touch upon the bigger picture. Social justice encompasses a very broad area with many considerations and Jesus, with His perfect attributes would never abandon truth and ***justice ***in the equation. In these matters much is to be taken into account.

There is another thread here for anyone interested which speaks of a more complex understanding of this issue:
