THESE ARE THE MIGRANTS ABOUT WHOM WE MUST CARE URGENTLY. BISHOP SCHNEIDER.
Catholic saint and priest Josemaría Escrivá’s Motto was “THE PRIMARY DUTY OF THE CHURCH IS TO SAVE SOULS, ONE BY ONE”, similar to what BISHOP SCHNEIDER says. A big impediment to Christian unity remains “THE 7 SACRAMENTS”, especially those of CONFESSION & THE HOLY EUCHARIST, to which we as CATHOLICS pay insufficient reverence.
