Day 23: A Tangible Faith
The abstract concept of faith can become very tangible when witnessed firsthand, as experienced at a liturgy in Malta with the Nigerian refugee community.
Pedro Guerrero is a native of Lima, Peru. His family and he immigrated to the United States in the early 1990s in the wake of ongoing internal conflict in his home country. A graduate of Loyola University Chicago, Pedro has worked as a congressional intern, as a graduate assistant at Loyola University Chicago’s John Felice Rome Center, and as the only green card-holding immigrant in the Missouri legislature, holding the position of legislator assistant for Representative, and now-Senator, Lauren Arthur of Kansas City, Missouri. He now serves as assistant director of alumni relations for Loyola University Chicago.

The ability of those who suffer to maintain a relationship with God in their strongest and weakest moments make their faith almost tangible.
