Minnesota UCC Border Trip, Border Requests
On November 14, 36 people from seven UCC congregations and several other faith communities will convene at Operation Streamline at the Federal Criminal Court in Tucson, AZ where our border trip under the leadership of Rev. Randy Mayer of The Good Shepherd, Sahuarita, AZ will begin. We will participate in a desert walk, listen to members of the Sierra Club share the damage that the border wall has created for people living along the border, for immigrants, for the earth, and for wildlife. We will be visiting asylum seekers living in shelters on the Mexican side of the border. We will join SOAWatch participants at a rally outside of the Eloy Detention Center, and for activities at the border and educational workshops.
