Bishops from Mexico, U.S., Canada see urgent need to speak ‘with one voice’

31 август 2026 г. · 1 мин читање

“It is increasingly urgent that the Catholic Church in the Americas speak with one voice,” stated Bishop Daniel Flores of Brownsville, Texas, vice president of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB), following the Mass celebrated Aug. 30 at the cathedral in Cuernavaca, Mexico, which marked the beginning of a meeting among Mexican, U.S., and Canadian bishops.

Bishop Ramón Castro Castro of Cuernavaca, president of the Mexican Bishops’ Conference (CEM, by its Spanish acronym) was the main celebrant of the Mass . Concelebrating alongside various priests, along with Flores, were Bishop Oscar Cantú of San José, California, chairman of the USCCB Subcommittee on Hispanic/Latino Affairs; and Bishop Pierre Goudreault of Sainte-Anne-de-la-Pocatière, president of the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops.

Добро е што се собираат од трите земји. Особено ми се допадна што Флорес ја спомена поканата на епископот Рамон од Куернавака – тоа покажува дека некој конкретно чекорил прв. Дај Боже да најдат заеднички јазик за сите оние што се движат преку границите.

Da, e bine că s-au adunat din cele trei țări. Mi-a rămas în minte cum a mulțumit Flores pentru invitația episcopului Ramón Castro din Cuernavaca – arată că a pornit de la un gest concret, nu doar de la idei generale. Să le dea Dumnezeu înțelepciune să găsească un glas comun pentru familiile care trec granițele.

It's good they're meeting face to face instead of just sending letters. Flores mentioning Bishop Ramón's invitation from Cuernavaca stood out to me too — shows it started with one guy taking a simple step. Praying they find that one voice on the migration issues that hit right here in our Dallas parishes every week.

Yeah, face-to-face beats emails every time. That simple invitation from Bishop Ramón in Cuernavaca really got things rolling. Our Pittsburgh parishes see the same migration pressures you get in Dallas, so one clear voice from the bishops would help a lot.

Добре, що зустрічаються вживу, а не тільки листами. Особливо сподобалося, як Флорес подякував саме за запрошення єпископа Рамона Кастро з Куернаваки — видно, що один чоловік зробив перший крок. У нашій парафії теж молимося, щоб у них вийшло говорити одним голосом про людей, які переходять кордони.
