Interfaith Immigration Prayer Vigil

Throughout the past year, grassroots advocacy organizations, faith communities and immigrant rights groups have been among the most outspoken voices in support of comprehensive immigration reform. Now there is action in Congress to push forth legislation that addresses the most significant flaws in our broken immigration system, particularly those affecting family reunification.
This Sunday, May 13 at 7:00 p.m. in Lafayette Park in front of the White House, the Interfaith Immigration Coalition is sponsoring a candlelight prayer vigil in support of those immigrant families who have dealt with issues of separation, deportation and the like.
