"SANCTUARY: A SHORT HISTORY"

The San Francisco Interfaith Council is pleased to share with our greater community 
the video featured at this year's  18th Annual Interfaith Thanksgiving Prayer Breakfast. 
The Prayer Breakfast's theme,  "Faith and Sanctuary: There Are  No Strangers,"  honored congregations  and leaders who pioneered San Francisco's Sanctuary Movement 30 years ago, recognized those who continue the tradition and highlighted young people for whom 
the City's commitment has provided hope and safety!

Sanctuary: A Short History

In this video, you will see and hear just a little over four minutes of testimony, of over eight hours of never-before-recorded precious archival footage on this timely subject. We extend special thanks to all who appeared in this segment and to producer Theo Rigby and his team.  With this material and additional interviews, it is our hope and vision to produce a more expansive and well-deserved full-length documentary  on the Sanctuary Movement.

We encourage faith leaders to share this important work by re-posting on their congregation websites and other social media:
