The Confluence of Social Teachings in Migrant Ministry
Catholic Social Teachings are in many of the stories shared here, and when discussing the Migrant Ministry at St. Francis, the same is true, but even more so. When you speak with Marylou Holloway about the ministry, you see the overlap with ‘solidarity,’ the dignity of the human person,’ ‘option for the poor and vulnerable,’ and ‘the dignity of work and worker’s rights.’ Marylou is a passionate and strong advocate for the ministry and all it does for those workers who come each year to work in the agriculture industry in our state.
