The Campaign for Hospitality invites the Jesuit and broader Catholic network in the United States and Canada to get to know people in our countries with recent stories of migration. Together, we will reflect on our common human dignity and values to create more welcoming communities and nations.
Join us. Campaign members (schools, parishes, communities, individuals, etc.) commit to engaging in at least one encounter, understand, and action opportunity each year.

This Summer (June-August), potluck with the global family. Break bread and share culture, conversation, tradition, and stories with newcomers, immigrants, refugees, and long-time residents.
Bellarmine Chapel, on the campus of Xavier University, answers the question, "What can we do?" by beginning to change the narrative around immigrants from a story of criminalization to one of humanization—and offers radical hospitality to a Salvadoran family.
An immersion co-organized by Jesuit Refugee Service/Canada and the Ignatian Solidarity Network examined the Canadian approach to welcoming refugee claimants, or asylum seekers, from both a policy and personal perspective.
For this World Refugee Day, June 20, 2018, Jesuit Refugee Service USA is inviting us all to join together in calling on the President to stand with and support our Syrian brothers and sisters. When President Trump decided to retaliate against the suspected use of chemical weapons on Syrian civilians, he said: “this is about humanity.” Help us remind him and the Administration that we continue to have a responsibility to take humanitarian action during this crisis.
Don’t believe the lies that make you fear migrants & refugees. They just want to protect/provide for their family. There is NO evidence that immigrants (w/ or w/o documents) commit crime more than U.S. citizens. In fact, evidence shows they are LESS likely to commit crime. #CforH
