Bishop Gettelfinger has requested that immigration information be published in the next several bulletins.

Perceived Myth: Better border enforcement will solve the immigration problem.

Known Fact: From 1986 to 1998, the Border Patrol’s budget increased six-fold and the number of agents stationed on our southwest border doubled to 8,500. From 1993 to 2004, spending for border enforcement nearly quardrupled. Yet, the number of unauthorized arrivals increased. Moreover, U.S. border enforcement strategies have channeled migrants to more remote crossing points, resulting in increased fatalities, a growth in smugglers and traffickers, and reduced chances of apprehension. Insufficient legal avenues for immigrants to enter the U.S. compared with the number of jobs in need of workers, have significantly contributed to the current conundrum.

RCIA – If you have been coming to Mass for a while, but are not Catholic, we invite you to look more deeply into the Catholic faith. Good Shepherd Parish will soon begin a series of sessions to explain the beliefs and practices of the Catholic faith. We invite you to learn what Catholics believe, how we worship, and how we live out our faith. These sessions are also an opportunity for you to ask questions you may have about the Church. These sessions are part of a process we call RCIA or Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults. If you or someone you know might have an interest in learning more, please call Father Attila or Deacon Ed at 477-5405.
