This Christmastime, it might be good to remember that baby Jesus was once a refugee.

What if the Holy Family had been turned away by the Egyptians, just like some of our political leaders are proposing to turn away Syrian refugees now?

Would Christianity even exist today if the Holy Family had no place to go?

These are questions to ponder before we close our minds, hearts, and boarders to a people who are truly in need.
