Countering Federal Violence With Neighborly Love | United Methodist News
Just two blocks from where an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent shot Renee Nicole Good, Park Avenue United Methodist Church in Minneapolis opened its doors last Sunday to give worshippers space to grieve and restore their faith in the face of violence. United Methodists across the United States joined with thousands of other people of faith and goodwill in prayer vigils and peaceful protests after federal agents opened fire in Minneapolis and Portland, Oregon. People braved ice and snow to stand up for their immigrant neighbors and speak out against what they see as increasing hostility towards a large part of the U.S. population. "We all know here in the Upper Midwest that the way you care for ice is that you throw a little salt on it. So, I invite you to go into the world and be salt and light,” said Bishop Lanette Plambeck. "I invite you to love and be a good neighbor."
