Relationship We are working with vulnerable people with diverse experiences. They may have needs beyond what we may be able to understand or help them with. Knowing this and that we all have fears and concerns, we ask you to reflect on your privileges. Keep that reflection and understanding with you as you walk with our immigrant sisters and brothers.

Where it all began… Broadview Detention Center – US Immigration and Customs Enforcement Ministry to: Deportees, Families, Prayer on Buses, Prayer Vigil
