Lord Jesus, help us to recognize you in the face of the stranger and welcome your presence among us. You have graced us with the gifts of many cultures and nations. Free us from the fear of those from other lands. Teach us to share our gifts with newcomers in return, so that you may say, "I was a stranger and you welcomed me. Come now into my kingdom." We ask this in your name. Amen.
Prayer for Immigrant Refugees, US Conference of Catholic Bishops, 2003
