Pope Francis donated half a million dollars to help caravan migrants stranded in Mexico.

The money will come from the Peter’s Pence collection, which is used to “to help the poor in whatever way is possible.”

“In 2018, six migrant caravans entered Mexico, for a total of 75,000 people; the arrival of other groups was announced. All these people were stranded, unable to enter the United States, without a home or livelihood,” read a statement from the Vatican's Peter's Pence Office.

“In this context, Pope Francis donated US $ 500,000 to assist migrants in Mexico. This amount will be distributed among 27 projects in 16 dioceses and among Mexican religious congregations

In March, Pope Francis criticized Trump, saying those who build walls “will end up becoming prisoners of the walls they build.”
What a hypocrite

He has walls around his house and armed guards.

The Catholic pope is an enemy of the United States and is aiding and abetting an illegal insurgent invasion our country.

If he ever comes here he should be arrested and charged wit insurrection.

The New World Order intends to destroy traditional America.

At any cost.

maybe we should send 100,000 illegal immigrants to Vatican City (with some equipment to enable them to break through the thick walls there!)

I stopped giving money to my Catholic church and send money to A Beacon of Hope Women Center. They provide help and counseling to women who are thinking of getting an abortion.

"Pope Francis sending money to Mexican congregations to help migrants"

I don’t know what Pope Frances’ salary / allowance is, but I think the referenced money probably came from Roman Catholics who tithe.

Correction’s insights welcome.

Time to declare war on Vatican. They are funding the American invasion. All Catholics should stop giving funds to the church til they stop. Giving money to the Catholic churchnewuals treason.

With all due respect to the Pope, just giving out free money isn’t going to help these people. Find them homes, find them jobs, get them to safety, sure. But just passing out some bills is worse than useless. Like feeding pigeons in NYC.

As long as the money is used in Mexico to help them to get safely home, I am all for it!

Francis will be part of the One World Religion, if things come fast enough.

That will be the “religious” part of the New World Order.
