Our Immigrant Brothers & Sisters.

God, soften hardened hearts and awaken conscience in leadership. Heal the wounds left behind and reunite families

with peace and purpose.


May communities open their arms in support, offering shelter, aid, and dignity to the vulnerable. Let voices rise not in hatred but in hope, demanding policies rooted in humanity rather than division. May justice roll like a river, and mercy

flow without end.
