As my Senior Seminar tweeting days come to a close, I just would like to say thank you to all my classmates and Doc Mott for making this year incredible. I have grown as a person in so many different aspects and I credit it fully to this course. I am so incredibly blessed.

Every one of us has a role to play to end it.

New! The Biden admin's asylum restriction has been published in the Federal Register. It is set to go into effect on May 11, just in time for the end of Title 42 that night. There are some minor changes, but they don't affect the core rule.

Thank you everyone for such a great #sensemchat !

A4: Boyle writes "I can locate, knowing that there is some divine ingenuity here, 'the slow work of God,' that gets done if we're faithful" (Boyle 186). I think that Boyle is saying that even though therre are hardships, God has success within them. #sensemchat

[Blakely Tusa @BlakelyTusa]

A3: I think that this term "downward mobility" essentially means that we have to take a pause from always wanting to move "up" in our lives and reconnect with the present. In my opinion, this term can be related to the idea of being "down to earth". #sensemchat

[Blakely Tusa @BlakelyTusa]

A1 (Part 2): "Yet it is God's dream come true when we recognize that there exists no daylight between us" (Boyle 188). I believe that this quote is what God's intention is for us as humans, and how we can live out the idea of kinship. #sensemchat

[Blakely Tusa @BlakelyTusa]

A1: Gregory Boyle describes kinship as this way of fostering a relationship with others as a friend, and through God he carries out the teaching of Jesus. #sensemchat

A2: Fr. Greg Boyle lives out every goal, but in particular goal #4: building community as a Christian value. Stated before, I believe that Gregory Boyle helps others through the love of Christ. #sensemchat
