Dear Friends oF thE Kino Border Initiative,When Pope Francis initiated his Jubilee Year of Mercy in December 2015, he was responding to the dire circumstances faced by our migrant brothers and sisters worldwide—now numbering 65 million, a monumental humanitarian crisis—and the great need for us to “contemplate the mystery of mercy…the ultimate and supreme act by which God comes to meet us.” This divine gift belongs to us all, and emanates outward each time we open our hearts to those who are suffering or seeking safer, better lives.

At the Kino Border Initiative, the Holy Father’s leadership on behalf of migrants and refugees encourages us every day, and speaks to the very essence of our work, offering aid, accompaniment, and advocacy to the migrants we encounter and sponsoring education and research to support more compassionate immigration policies in the U.S. where the futures of 11.5 million undocumented immigrants hang in the balance.

In 2016, our direct aid and educational efforts reached more people than ever. We served 46,820 meals to 8,383 individuals, and offered first aid to 3,784 migrants requiring medical attention. We sheltered 380 women and children at Nazareth House, less than the previous year, but for longer stays as we assisted many in preparing asylum claims. We organized 66 immersion experiences, hosted 73 KBI visits, and offered 47 educational presentations. And as we look to the next generation of advocates, we are inspired by the young participants in our first Walking in Mercy Youth Summit and Leadership Days, as well as 11 Kino Teens groups, not only in Southern Arizona, but across the country. In addition, KBI staff traveled to Washington, D.C., several U.S. states, and Guatemala to participate in various delegations, conferences, coalitions, and meetings on migrant rights and border issues.

In these endeavors, we walk in mercy together, supported each step of the way by your contributions, volunteer work, and prayers. This journey we are privileged and humbled to undertake brings us full circle—that which we offer with humility, charity, and empathy emboldens us to be more generous, more loving. Thank you for being instruments of God’s mercy, and for helping to create a world of greater peace, justice, and compassion.

In gratitude,Rev. Sean Carroll, S.J.Executive Director

Queridos Amigos de la Iniciativa Kino para la Frontera,Cuando el Papa Francisco inició su Año Jubilar de la Misericordia en Diciembre de 2015, él respondía a las extremas circunstancias encontradas por nuestros hermanos y hermanas migrantes en todo el mundo – que ahora llegan a 65 millones, siendo ya una crisis humanitaria monumental – y la gran necesidad de todos nosotros de “contemplar el misterio de la misericordia…el acto supremo y último por el cual Dios viene a encontrarnos.” Este don divino nos pertenece a todos, y emana hacia afuera cada vez que abrimos nuestro corazón a aquellos quienes están sufriendo o en busca de vidas más segura y mejores.

En la Iniciativa Kino de la Frontera, el liderazgo del Santo Padre a favor de los migrantes y refugiados nos anima cada día, y alude a la misma esencia de nuestro trabajo, ofreciendo ayuda, compañía, y respaldo a los migrantes que nosotros encontramos y patrocinando educación e investigación para apoyar políticas de inmigración más compasivas en los EE.UU. donde el futuro de 11.5 millones de inmigrantes indocumentados está en suspenso.

En el año 2016, nuestra ayuda personalizada y nuestros esfuerzos educacionales alcanzaron más gente que nunca. Servimos 46,820 comidas a 8,383 individuos, y ofrecimos primeros auxilios a 3,784 migrantes que requerían atención médica. Albergamos a 380 mujeres y niños en Casa Nazaret, menos que el año anterior, pero para estadías más prolongadas ya que asistimos a muchos de ellos en preparar su solicitud de asilo. Organizamos 66 experiencias de inserción, hospedamos a 73 visitantes de KBI, y ofrecimos 47 presentaciones educacionales. Cuando dirigimos la mirada a la próxima generación de defensores, nos sentimos inspirados por los jóvenes participantes en nuestra primera Marcha de la Misericordia y Días de Liderazgo de la Cumbre de Jóvenes, así como por los 11 Grupos de Adolescentes Kino, no solo en Arizona del Sur, sino a través de todo el país. En adición, el personal KBI viajó a Washington, D.C., a varios estados en EE.UU., y Guatemala para participar en varias delegaciones, conferencias, coaliciones, y encuentros sobre los derechos de los migrantes y asuntos de frontera.

En estos esfuerzos caminamos juntos en compasión, apoyados a cada paso del camino por sus contribuciones, trabajo voluntario, y oraciones. Este viaje, cuyo asumir nos privilegia y hace más humildes, nos porta de nuevo al principio - aquello que nosotros ofrecemos con humildad, caridad, y empatía nos anima a ser más generosos, a amar más. Gracias por permitirnos ser instrumentos de la misericordia de Dios, y por su ayuda en crear un mundo de mayor paz, justicia, y compasión.

Con gratitud,Padre. Sean Carroll, S.J.Director Ejecutivo

T H E P O W E R O F M E R C Y:

Maria’s Story

We shared Maria’s story last year, after she and her children fled Honduras to arrive at the U.S.–Mexico border after a two-year journey. With the help of the Kino Border Initiative, and local advocacy and church groups in Sahuarita, Arizona, she and her family found safety, support, and community during the asylum process.

M A R I A’ S J O U R N E YRunning a small market and raising four children on her own, Maria faced plenty of challenges with the dedication and stamina common to mothers. But she also endured several years of extortion from the formidable Mara–18, the local arm of an international criminal organization. When Maria was unable to pay these “fees,” the gang threatened to take her two oldest children as “payment.” Her decision to head North was difficult, but also straightforward—when one’s children are in danger and law enforcement is unresponsive, it is time to flee.

Traveling nearly 3,000 miles, Maria stopped repeatedly to care for her children and take odd jobs to earn more money to continue. Through unimaginable stresses and continual obstacles, Maria reassured her family, kept them together, and never lost hope. It took two years, but they finally arrived in Nogales, Sonora where the KBI was there to help.

T H E R O L E O F T H E K B I A N D I T S PA R T N E R S Once at the border, Maria and her children stayed at the KBI shelter for three months while advocacy staff obtained documentation and a pro-bono lawyer for their asylum claims, and put together a plan with partner organizations to ensure a safe, welcoming place for the family in the U.S. while they awaited their court dates. The Green Valley–Sahuarita Samaritans and the Good Shepherd United Church of Christ of Sahuarita stepped in to sponsor Maria and her children, and support them through the asylum process.

Since the summer of 2016, they have aided Maria’s family in a range of ways—offering transportation and interpreter assistance; re-enrolling the children in school and setting up tutoring; obtaining

low-cost medical, counseling and legal services; assisting with living expenses; and providing neighborly companionship. For Maria and her family, Sahuarita has become home as the children, ages 3 to 15, make new friends, master English, and learn to swim—one of her daughters runs on her school’s track team. Meanwhile, Maria volunteers with the Good Shepherd food bank to give back to their new community.

T H E J O U R N E Y C O N T I N U E SWith our partner organizations— churches, community groups, advocacy agencies, and legal experts—the KBI extends a helping hand to migrants in need, and offers accompaniment and solace in their dark hours. But Maria’s journey, and those of others who seek safety and better lives, began before she arrived at the KBI, and continues after, as communities as close to the border as Sahuarita or as far as River Falls, Wisconsin and Chicago embrace immigrant families and take up the work of mercy.

The power of mercy lies in the conviction of communities to step up and forward, to protect and advocate for those most in need. Often, a single action can spur the process, rippling outward to build momentum. At the KBI, Maria shared her experience and dreams with Samaritan volunteer Linda Cohen, who called on her church, Good Shepherd, and its pastor, long-time migrant advocate Reverend Randy Mayer, to invite Maria’s family into their community. The congregation responded by opening their hearts and homes, with Linda’s family hosting Maria and her children during those first months.

We see this at the KBI every day—an encounter, a recognition of ourselves in others, a pledge of accompaniment, a commitment of resources, time, assistance, friendship. Once the power of mercy takes hold, it can become inspiring and unstoppable, as we stand with migrant families and those seeking asylum to let them know they are not alone.

Maria’s lawyers presented her family’s asylum case in March. In June, they’ll learn the results, with their wider family of church and community beside them.


E L P O D E R D E L A C O M PA S I Ó N :

Historia de María

Nosotros participamos de la historia de María el año pasado, luego que ella y sus niños huyeron de Honduras para llegar a la frontera México-EE.UU. luego de una travesía de dos años. Con la ayuda de la Iniciativa Kino de la Frontera, apoyo local y grupos de la iglesia en Sahuarita, Arizona, ella y su familia encontraron seguridad, soporte y apoyo comunitario durante el proceso de asilo.

T R A V E S Í A D E M A R Í AMaría administraba un pequeño mercado y criaba cuatro niños por ella misma, ella se enfrentó a una gran cantidad de desafíos con la dedicación y la energía común de las madres. Pero ella también toleró varios años de extorsión por parte de la Mara-18, el brazo local de una organización criminal internacional. Cuando María fue incapaz de pagar las “cuotas,” o extorsiones, la banda amenazó en secuestrar a sus dos niños mayores como “pago.” Su decisión de dirigirse al Norte fue difícil, pero también firme - cuando los niños de uno están en peligro y los representantes de la ley no lo toman en cuenta, es tiempo de correr.

Viajando cerca de 3,000 millas, María tuvo que detenerse repetidamente para cuidar a sus niños y hacer trabajos casuales, de esta forma ganar algo de dinero y así continuar con su viaje. Aun con tensiones inimaginables y obstáculos continuos, María tranquilizó a su familia, los mantuvo juntos, y nunca perdió la esperanza. Tomó dos años, pero ellos finalmente llegaron a Nogales, Sonora donde KBI estaba allí para ayudar.

E L PA P E L D E K B I Y S U S A S O C I A D O SUna vez en la frontera, María y sus niños permanecieron en el albergue de KBI por tres meses, en tanto que personal de apoyo obtenía documentación y un abogado pro-bono para sus demandas de asilo, y organizaba un plan con organizaciones asociadas para asegurar un lugar seguro que de la bienvenida a la familia en los EE.UU. en tanto esperaban las fechas de la corte. Los Samaritanos Sahuarita de Valle Verde y la Iglesia Unida de Cristo El Buen Pastor de Sahuarita entraron en acción en soporte de María y sus niños, y los apoyaron durante el proceso de asilo.

Desde el verano de 2016, ellos han ayudado a la familia de María en una variedad de maneras – ofreciendo transporte y asistencia como intérpretes, re-inscribiendo a los niños en la escuela y estableciendo tutorías y proveyendo apoyo de la comunidad. Para María y su familia, Sahuarita ha sido su hogar, en tanto los niños, de las edades de 3 a 15 años, hacen nuevas amistades, aprenden bien el inglés, y aprenden natación – una de sus hijas corre en el equipo de carrera de su escuela. En tanto María, agradecida con su nueva comunidad, hace trabajo voluntario en el banco de comida de El Buen Pastor.

E L V I A J E C O N T I N Ú ACon nuestras organizaciones asociadas – Iglesias, grupos comunales, agencias de apoyo, y expertos legales – KBI extiende una mano que ayuda a migrantes en necesidad, y ofrece compañía y solaz en sus horas oscuras. Pero el viaje de María, y de aquellos otros que buscan seguridad y vidas mejores, empezaron antes que llegasen a KBI y continúa luego, en comunidades tan cercanas a la frontera como Sahuarita o tan apartadas como River Falls, Wisconsin y Chicago adonde acogen a familias de inmigrantes y asumen la obra de la misericordia.

El poder de la Misericordia yace en la convicción de las comunidades de levantarse y dar un paso al frente, para proteger y apoyar a aquellos que necesitan más de ayuda. A menudo, una sola acción puede espolear el proceso, ascendiendo hasta ganar intensidad. En KBI María compartió su experiencia y sueños con la voluntaria Samaritana Linda Cohen, quien la llamó a su iglesia, El Buen Pastor, y a su ministro, quien por largo tiempo brinda apoyo a los migrantes, el Reverendo Randy Mayer, para invitar a María y a su familia a ser parte de la comunidad. La congregación reaccionó abriendo sus corazones y hogares, con la familia de Linda hospedando a María y a sus niños durante aquellos primeros meses.

Nosotros vemos esto en KBI cada día – un encuentro, un reconocimiento de nosotros mismos en otros, un compromiso de acompañar, una dedicación de recursos, tiempo, asistencia, amistad. Una vez el poder de la misericordia asume el control, puede devenir inspirador e indetenible, cuando nosotros permanecemos con las familias migrantes y con aquellos buscando asilo para dejarles conocer que no están solos.

Los abogados de María presentaron el caso de asilo de su familia en marzo. En junio, ellos conocerán los resultados, con su más amplia familia de la iglesia y la comunidad junto a ellos.


The identity of Maria and her family is being protected. This photo and those of the children on these pages are of another family who has benefited from the KBI.

2016 Pope Francis AwardFather Sean presents Jeanne and Jack O’Brien with the Pope Francis Award, a migrant portrait painted and donated by Pamela Hoffmeister, for their exceptional support of the KBI’s mission. Photo by Larry Hanelin.

At the Sixth Annual KBI Dinner in February 2016, Phoenix-based supporters Jack and Jeanne O’Brien received the Pope Francis Award for extraordinary service to the Kino Border Initiative. As members of the Order of Malta, a worldwide, Catholic lay organization offering aid and advocacy to those most in need, they first learned about the KBI from Bishop Kicanas of Tucson while on an Order-related trip to the city. They visited the KBI and, moved by the migrants’ stories—Jack sees in them the same desire for a better life that brought his parents from Ireland and, later, his Mexican-born employees at his truck dealership to the U.S.—they became committed champions of the KBI, helping to secure an Order of Malta grant for our work.

After raising six children in their blended family and now enjoying the pleasures of 18 grandchildren, Jack and Jeanne have retired since selling the dealership in 2007. These days, they devote even more time and energy to their philanthropic endeavors, Order of Malta activities, and the KBI’s mission and ministry. The O’Briens see their contributions and hands-on service as a way to accompany migrants, and the KBI is deeply grateful for their dedication, generosity, and advocacy.

En la Sexta Cena Anual de KBI en Febrero del 2016, los miembros del grupo de apoyo de Phoenix, Jack y Jeanne O’Brien, recibieron el Galardón Papa Francisco por su servicio extraordinario a la Iniciativa Kino de la Frontera. Como miembros de la Orden de Malta, una organización seglar Católica que ofrece ayuda y apoyo a aquellos que más lo necesitan, ellos por primera vez escucharon acerca de KBI del Obispo Kicanas de Tucson durante un viaje relacionado con la Orden a esa ciudad. Ellos visitaron a KBI y, conmovidos por las historias de los migrantes – Jack ve en ellos el mismo deseo por una vida mejor que trajo a sus padres desde Irlanda, y más tarde, a sus trabajadores nacidos en México a su negocio de camiones en los EE.UU. – ellos se tornaron dedicados campeones de KBI, ayudando a asegurar una concesión de la Orden de Malta por nuestro trabajo.

Luego de criar seis niños en su familia integrada y ahora gozando los placeres de 18 nietos, Jack y Jeanne se han retirado luego de vender su negocio en el 2007. En estos días, ellos dedican aún más tiempo y energía a sus esfuerzos filantrópicos, actividades de la Orden de Malta, en la misión y ministerio de KBI. Los O’Brien ven sus contribuciones y servicios prácticos como una manera de acompañar a los migrantes, y KBI está profundamente agradecida por su dedicación, generosidad, y apoyo.
