Holy Family Institute Support

We, the Sisters of Divine Providence, are grateful to Holy Family Institute, and support you:

• for responding with respect, care and compassion to the humanitarian crisis of unaccompanied children arriving at the US-Mexico border, truly a pro-life issue;
• for  welcoming  these children, among the most vulnerable in the world, who have made the dangerous journey to the United States in search of life and a future;
• for responding to the call of Pope Francis who named the present situation as a humanitarian emergency that demands that these minors be protected and duly taken in.
• Thank you, Sister Linda Yankoski, and Holy Family Institute, for being the face of the Christ who said: “Let the children alone, and do not hinder them from coming to Me; for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these."  You are all in our hearts and in our prayer.
