A LINE IN THE SAND: STORIES FROM THE U.S./MEXICO BORDER — on January 10th

Much has been written and discussed about migrants, mostly from poor towns in Mexico, being smuggled across the border into Arizona and Texas — and what many of them encounter once they arrive. To get a picture of what goes on, three agents from Catholic Relief Services traveled to Arizona and spent days talking with a whole cross section of people affected by this migration — migrants themselves, border patrol agents, volunteers who help the migrants, medical examiners who attempt to identify the bodies of the many who succumb to the heat of the desert, and residents of Arizona near the border who are affected, both positively and negatively, by the influx of migrants. The CRS has taken these interviews and turned them into a revealing and instructive drama — A Line in the Sand: Stories from the U.S./Mexico Border. CTK parishioners will have a chance to experience this drama after the 9:30 mass on Sunday, January 10th, when members of the CTK Sowers will present a dramatic reading of the script in the auditorium. Don’t miss it. It’s a heart-rending story — and it’s true!
