The article analyzes, present in the Christian tradition from St. Augustine, category ordo caritatis. Presents it from a historical perspective and makes an attempt to show that it is current, as well as shows the possibility of referring it to problems of migration in the contemporary world. The article emphasizes that category ordo cari- tatis was invoked whenever it was necessary to answer the question: how and who we should help in a situation when we cannot help them all?
