'I was a stranger, and you welcomed me' ... or do we?

Just a thought for the people who voiced their opinions concerning immigrants to our country: The Holy Family was forced to flee their home; they relocated to Egypt for a time. I hope they were treated with hospitality, not contempt.

"I was a stranger, and you welcomed me...," Jesus states in Matthew, teaching us to care for one another, as we would for Him. With compassion and patience, or at least, civility.
