CTEWC mourns the loss of Pope Francis. The church and world have been marked by his prophetic witness, summons to the peripheries, and exemplary leadership. We remain grateful for his support for our network, inc. at our 2017 audience and his 2018 message to our international conference in Sarajevo.

A Catholic guide to migration ethics in the Trump era
Donald Trump's second term as U.S. President will surely raise significant questions about the ethics of migration policies. How might we resist extremism and polarization while retaining a commitment to the church's teaching on the dignity of all peoples?
