On the eve of Three Kings Day, a group of Hispanic children gathered to ask their majesties something that has nothing to do with toys: that the Pope help them so that the new President Donald Trump does not deport his parents.

For this, the children delivered to the pastor of the Los Angeles cathedral, David Gallardo, more than 200 letters addressed to Pope Francis. Through them they express their different stories and hope that the pontiff will realize the suffering that children feel for their uncertain future, according to the newspaper La Opinión.

Among those who sent her letter was boy Mario Vargas, Jersey Vargas' older brother, the girl who traveled to the Vatican in 2014 to advocate for her father not to be deported.

Before delivering the letters, the children prayed with the priest. “They are the wishes as families that can continue living in peace and harmony. We want Trump's heart to be transformed for good,”said the pastor, according to La Opinión.

The electoral promise of the president-elect to erect a border wall and deport the nearly 10 million undocumented immigrants in the country has generated anguish and uncertainty among broad sectors of the Hispanic community, in which the return to the times of raids is feared. massive immigration.
