The faithful should “ask God’s grace and God”s presence as we address very difficult and challenging situations on the ground,” Archbishop Paul Coakley said regarding immigration issues.
Archbishop Paul Coakley said immigration remains a “very high priority” for the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB).
In a Jan. 30 interview with “EWTN News In Depth,” Coakley discussed “the unrest taking place in our cities, particularly in Minneapolis and the violent outbreak,” following the recent death of Alex Pretti, the man shot and killed by federal agents on Jan. 24.
The incident marked the second death by federal agents in the city. Renee Good was shot and killed on Jan. 7 by a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent.
Following Pretti’s death, Coakley, president of the USCCB, called for his brother bishops and priests across the United States to offer “a Holy Hour for peace.”
