Location: Sheslow Auditorium at Drake University, 2507 University Avenue, Des Moines, IA 50311

The St. Catherine of Siena Student Center presents “Faith in Action for the Common Good.” This new series invites people of all spiritual walks of life to listen, converse, and then act to improve conditions that benefit all members of society.

Mark J. Seitz has served as the Bishop of the Diocese of El Paso, Texas since 2013. As a leader in a borderland community adjacent to Chihuahua, Mexico, Seitz has focused his work and heart on the poor and vulnerable, including migrant families and refugees. Having spent years walking with immigrants, working with Texas elected officials, and conversing with border agents, he will share his perspective on a topic that many Americans view as critically important to the future of our country.
