Join us
in walking and praying in solidarity with our immigrant sisters and brothers who— as the Holy Family sought a place to stay—have been knocking on the doors for legislative shelter, or “Posada,” year after year. This year Pastoral Migratoria from the Archdiocese of New York, Archdiocese of Newark, Archdiocese of Baltimore, Diocese of Joliet, Diocese of Orange and Diocese of Stockton will join us simultaneously to elevate our voices for immigration reform. If your diocese or parish would like to coordinate a Posada for Immigration Reform or for more information, please contact Raymundo Valdez at rvaldez@archchicago.org 773-619-1448.
