On Wednesday, Aug 7 we got the news of the raids conducted by ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement's Homeland Security Investigations) near Jackson, resulting in the detention of 680 people. In a raid they said was months in the planning, they did this on the first day of school, in what some have called "a mass family separation" event.
Our congregational theme for this month is "What does it mean to be a people of welcome?" Welcome sure as h____ does not look like that! And, it does not need to be this way. For this Sunday Service we will consider where we are as a state and country and perhaps even more importantly, how to keep our hearts and doors open to being welcoming.
