Looking for churches that support immigrant human rights
Hi all,
I'm looking to join a new church that supports human rights of all people and actually follows God's teachings. Can I get some recommendations please? I'm open to Sacramento county or Placer county. TIA
I volunteer with immigrants and see the terror and devastation they are facing every day because of ICE. Immigrants are getting kidnapped after successfully completing ice check-ins, court hearings, green card interviews, and approved asylum cases. It's not about legality, it is simply racism fueling this. People are kidnapped off the street in broad daylight, without being asked any questions, simply because they look a certain way. Children are left alone when their parents don't come home. Families are being ripped apart and prevented from seeing their loved ones. People are being witheld medications and medical care in detention centers and some have died or miscarried in custody because of the mistreatment. Christians who are against the human rights of immigrants have lost their morals. Jesus was an immigrant. I'm looking for a church that is against the horror of what ICE is doing to people.
For any naysayers, please refer to these verses about welcoming, caring for, and protecting this community from injustice:
Leviticus 19:33-34 Jeremiah 22:3 Exodus 23:9 Exodus 22:21 Zechariah 7:9-10 Deuteronomy 10:18-19 Deuteronomy 27:19 Malachi 3:5 Matthew 25:35 Ezekiel 47:22 Jeremiah 7:5-7 Ezekiel 22:29 Romans 13:1-7 Leviticus 25:35 Exodus 12:49 Hebrews 13:2 Leviticus 23:22 Matthew 25:40 Deuteronomy 24:14-15
