Araceli Herrera, 65, said she is marching for her undocumented son.



"Where I live in San Antonio, there are many domestic workers. I am a domestic worker. And the majority of them are undocumented, and so we came to ask the Pope to intercede on our behalf with his message of love and support for migrants," Herrera. "We are asking him to please advocate for immigration reform."



"I'm also marching for my son, because he is undocumented. I suffer a lot because when he goes to work, I think one day he might not come back. This torments me, because every day he tells me the [Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents] are nearby, it makes me worry."



Herrera also shared her advice for young women with Refinery29.



"With love and with sacrifice, like the one we are making here, you can achieve anything. And every sacrifice or time of suffering makes us women all the stronger."
