God our Father, today the church celebrates the feast of the Holy Family. The Gospel tells of the Holy Family’s flight into Egypt to ensure the safety of their newborn son. Help us remember that, like the Holy Family, countless people today flee for their safety. Help us–as individuals and as a country–find ways to welcome those who seek safety among us.

Amen.
