Sanctuary is Sacred: Public Worship & Action for Immigration Justice
- Date: Friday, April 18, 2025
- Time: 4:00pm–5:00pm EDT
- Location: Downtown Boston (RSVP for location)
On Good Friday, Christians and people of faith will gather in prayer and protest, demanding protection for our immigrant neighbors and our communities.
Jesus’ birth was a story of migration and border-crossing. Jesus’ death was a confrontation with – and triumph over – the powers of empire and a radical, loving act of solidarity with the oppressed. In remembering Jesus’ story during Holy Week, we are called to be in solidarity with the crucified peoples of our present. This public worship and action calls on our state legislators to protect our communities by passing the Dignity not Deportations Act and by getting ICE off of our streets and out of our churches. While this action will be rooted in the Christian tradition and practice of Stations of the Cross, people of all or no faith backgrounds are welcome and encouraged to attend.
