Chicago priest crosses border illegally to highlight immigration reform | CLTV

Father Graf’s incredible adventure:

A Catholic priest from Chicago’s Southwest side crossed the border from Mexico into the United States illegally to call for immigration reform.

Father Gary Graf from Saint Gall Church did the border crossing in Nogales, Arizona recently, by hopping a fence.

He then turned himself into federal agents, and asked for forgiveness.

He returned to Chicago Saturday night and celebrated mass Sunday morning.

Father Graf hopes the crossing sparks authentic dialogue on immigration laws.

I get the protest part. But forgiveness? What the . . . ? Like if stopped for speeding, you tell the cop you’re sorry? What the . . . ?

  1. Gary Graf was pastor at a Waukegan church where he was “Fr. Social Justice.” Really, these poseurs are mentally ill, just at Michael Savage’s book states, “Liberalism is a Mental Disease.”
