Three Wise Men Visit Migrant Camps In Mexico

On January 6, 2025, the Three Wise Men visit several migrant camps in Mexico City, Mexico, to offer gifts on the eve of Three Kings Day. According to belief, the Gospel of St. Matthew mentions that some ''wise men'' from the East are guided by a star to worship a newborn baby. The names Melchior, Gaspar, and Balthazar first appear in a 6th-century mosaic in the Basilica of San Apollinare El Nuovo in Ravenna, Italy. Migrants stranded in Mexico City continue to try to complete a procedure at the facilities of the Mexican Commission for Refugee Assistance to remain longer in Mexico due to the difficulties their compatriots face in entering the United States. They wait for an appointment to apply for a ''Visitor Card for Humanitarian Reasons'' to access health services and employment opportunities in Mexico while being assisted and to continue their journey to the border. They fear that with the election of Donald Trump, this situation will worsen. (Photo by Gerardo Vieyra/NurPhoto)
