Sunday Services –11:00-12:00
Mar 17 – The Religious Response to the Immigrant Situation Presented by Rev.Judith Deutsch
Church World Service, according to Reuters, says that there are more than 800 churches that offer sanctuary, but very few immigrants (maybe only 12 currently) actually go into sanctuary because, "the fear is that they could be stuck in a church for years on end, or if their story is public, the may be more of a target."
The NM Faith Coalition for Immigrant Justice, founded in 2009, shares a hope of "creating an environment that welcomes the stranger in our age and for generations to come."
Please join us as Rev. Judith dives deeper into the local status of the situation. This should be exceptionally interesting with our current climate of such divisiveness around immigration issues.
