Interfaith Immigration Vigil
November 4, 2017
Join us at the West County Detention Facility in Richmond for the monthly interfaith immigration vigil. We’ll gather with song, prayer, sacred story, and make our presence known as loudly as we can for our sisters and brothers being detained. You can read more about the vigil here. Contact Margaret Sparks for carpooling information.
