In a powerful 1 minute video  John Klink, president of the International Catholic Migration Commission, talks to Catholic News Service about Pope Francis’ special awareness of migrants’ problems.

FlightIntoEgypt_PPPAFrancis himself said “I have come from the ends of the earth.” Klink continues “He himself is a migrant. His parents were migrants… Italian parents leaving Italy to go to Argentina … He has therefore a special understanding much like Christ who in his early days as youth was a refugee”and their son returning to Italy as Pope”
