FONTANA (CBSLA.com) — Dozens of undocumented immigrants Thursday morning arrived at a San Bernardino County church.

A group of 32 children and 14 adults, who illegally crossed the U.S. border into Texas, arrived at St. Joseph’s Church in the 17000 block of Arrow Boulevard in Fontana.

“The Catholic Church welcomed us. We are here, we are okay,” Bianca, a Salvadorian who is seeking refugee status with her mother in the States, said.

The group is being housed in an old convent and is expected to stay there for a couple of days as plans are arranged to get the immigrants to their final destinations, a church spokesperson said.
