Pope Francis praised the work being done by one group on behalf of migrants and refugees. In a meeting over the weekend at the Vatican, the Holy Father said a lot is being done by the Humanitarian Corridors project. He says it is protecting the vulnerable and breaking down the walls of indifference. The initiative is organized by Catholic and Evangelical groups, the Church in Italy and various governments in Europe. EWTN Vatican Bureau Chief, Andreas Thonhauser, joins to tell us more about this audience. He explains why the situation is so problematic and shares more about the illegal migration into the European Union.
