Join us in downtown Raleigh for a community gathering of prayer, song, and shared witness. We will call for the dignity and due process that every person deserves: no more unidentified masked men, no more inappropriate use of force to intimidate, basic human decency for all, and due process too. We will gather together to unite as one community through a program of prayer, song, sharing, and a way forward. We will leave with a list of actions we can take to express the teachings of our many faiths through love for our immigrant neighbors. Will you join us? This is not a protest. Rather we proclaim a vision of unity, not division. We will gather as people of faith across many different religions, setting aside our differences and united by what we share: the respect for all, and dignity that all people deserve. And a confidence that together we can make a difference and create the change we seek. We know there are problems with the way our nation deals with immigration and our immigrant neighbors today. We know we can do and be better. That’s the change we seek. If you too are concerned but get overwhelmed, don’t know what to do or where to start, come stand with us. Sing with us. Listen to what our faith expects from us all, how what’s happening today is at odds with what we believe, and what needs to change. We believe we can overcome this dark time in America. Will you stand with us? Free and open to all. No registration required, but sign up to receive updates and information about the event.
