walking together toward
a just, hospitable world

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.

“Hospitality, which is one of the works of mercy, is revealed as a truly human and Christian virtue”

Pope Francis

Until 1890, there was no national immigration system or agency in the US. A passport was not required for entry until 1918, and even then it was only for identification.
