Why are Catholics involved with refugee resettlement?

What's the point here?

Churches and their congregations like to see themselves positively, so they engage in charity. Feed the hungry, clothe the needy, etc. There's nothing new about that.
 
I was under the impression that Churches were getting mega bucks to take care of the refugees.
 
Yuppers. I remembered correctly. Charity? Kiss my ass. What really pisses me off about this is we still have mega poverty and homelessness. But I guess there's a better profit margin for the Churches to put Americans at the back of the "caring line".

In FY 2015, the State Department, through the Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration and the Office of Refugee Resettlement, spent more than $1 billion on these programs, which settled international refugees “vetted” by the United Nations High Commission on International Refugees in all 50 states and the District of Columbia.

The federal government spent hundreds of millions of dollars more than that on refugees, however. The Department of Health and Human Services also provided a number of “entitlements” to these refugees.

Much of this $1 billion in annual revenue goes to voluntary agencies (VOLAGs), several of which are Christian non-profits, such as Catholic Charities, Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service, World Relief Corporation, Church World Service, and Domestic and Foreign Missionary Service of the Episcopal Church of the USA. (also referred to as Episcopal Migration Ministries), who are contracted on behalf of the government to help these refugees get settled in their new homes in America.

You do know that in the USA we have a special kind of Christian community at USMB...
 
Somebody has to molest the migrant children
Often times ignorance is insolent.
A bottle of muratic acid will take care of that problem...
I think you might need something stronger. Maybe a 10/10 solution of HCl and acetic.
I got time for the slow cleaning effect...
Try 15% HCl. That should do the trick.

Not as much as you think and you are getting low on milk.
 
Not just Catholics either. There are many Christian ministries that work hand in hand with the US Government as part of the stealth refugee program. Something doesn't look quite right here. This whole arrangement needs a thorough review by President Trump.

The refugees need to watch their young boys closely.
That's nice of you to give them a head start. Very sporting of you.
