Emigration, once a natural phenomenon, has in our context taken on the appearance of a crisis. The Author is inscribed as a young witness of his time. He confronts the problem of migration as a young person, as a believer and as a consecrated person. He takes advantage as much as possible of his years of philosophical and theological training to define his subject as a natural phenomenon that has become worrying because of the mutation of societies. He finds in the reading of the Word of God the right light to face what now appears to be a crisis of our time. Finally, in the charisma proper to his religious family, he finds the adequate instruments to propose some elements of response in opposition to the increasingly recurring tendency to give in to closure by erecting walls. This work, which is undoubtedly a contribution of the Author to the pastoral effort to respond to a challenge, should leave no baptized person's conscience indifferent. Appolinaire Anguissa Metogo.
