Refugee Services

Prayer to St. Frances Xavier Cabrini-Patroness of the CSS Refugee Program

Almighty and eternal Father, giver of all good gifts, show us Thy mercy, and grant,  we beseech thee, through the merits of Thy faithful servant, St. Frances Xavier Cabrini, that all who invoke her intercession may obtain what they desire according to the good pleasure of Thy Holy Will.

“I was a stranger and you welcomed me…”

Our refugee services program welcomes the refugee and assists the families with housing, employment and education so that they may become self-sufficient. Refugee families have had to flee their native countries, often at great personal risk to themselves and their families, because of political or religious persecution. Catholic Social Services currently resettles approximately 100 families per year into Lincoln and Hastings.
