A Catholic group in Northern Kentucky brought together clergy, religious sisters, and legal experts to discuss immigration through the lens of Catholic moral teaching. Some participants emphasized mercy, urging the faithful to welcome immigrants as neighbors in need. Others stressed prudence, reminding participants that borders and law exist to protect communities and maintain order. The conversation highlighted a familiar tension in public life: how to balance compassion with responsibility. The Catholic Church’s role in this important conversation is to teach from biblical principles of justice and charity, and guide believers toward discernment—showing that charity and justice are not opposed, but interwoven. In a world of complex challenges, faith calls for hearts that care and minds to prudence.
