DESCRIPTION
On Thursday, June 29th, advocates, faith leaders, and community members are invited to join us at the Mancos United Methodist Church to stand in solidarity with Rosa Sabido who has been living in sanctuary there for the past few weeks. For the last 8 years Rosa has been granted Stays of Removal by Immigration Customs Enforcement (ICE) until May 11, 2017, when the agency declined and scheduled her to be deported. After living in the U.S. for over 30 years and working in a local church for eight years, Rosa is asking to stay with her community and with U.S. citizen parents in the country she calls home. The community and the church vow to stand with her during this time as she lives in sanctuary. All those able and willing are asked to take a moment out of your day on Thursday to act in solidarity with Rosa, her community, and the millions of immigrants around this country that she represents. A community lunch will be provided for those that wish to stay after. This is a time to talk with one another, build our network, and enjoy a meal together.
