Manage episode 356587299 series 3287234
We are excited to welcome Joanna Williams, the Executive Director of the Kino Border Initiative (KBI). KBI is a binational program that includes a shelter and soup kitchen for migrants in Nogales, Senora, and education and encounter programs, along with advocacy outreach in both the U.S. and Mexico. Joanna shares the story of what brought her to KBI in 2011 and the stories that continue to inspire her work. She reflects on how her migrant ministry is truly a vocation, and how that ministry has been enhanced and deepened through her own motherhood since the recent birth of her daughter.
Louie and Brian share the story of Pilar’s vocation as a father, and the sacrifices he’s made to support his family on their journey north from Honduras. They also share their own vocational calls to minister at the border. Brian’s was a call born out of living in Nicaragua, spending a summer at KBI, and focusing on migration in theology studies. Louie’s was a phone call from the provincial that came by surprise!
