    • Abstract:
      The article talks about the warm welcome given by Catholic parishes in the U.S. to refugees who were forced to leave their homes and loved ones in their native countries due to circumstances beyond their control. Topics discussed include the refugee settlement established at St. Francis of Assisi Church in Kentucky, the small communities of refugees created through resettlement of refugees, and the opposition of several state governors against refugees due to security concerns.
