Opportunity to Advocate for Immigrant Rights

On Wednesday, November 13th, at the request of Bishop Elizando, St. Mary’s will be hosting a Sound Alliance gathering from 7-8:30pm. The event is focused on a proposed King County ordinance that would stop the County’s practice of sending innocent immigrants and those who have committed only minor crimes to the Tacoma Northwest Detention Center. Sound Alliance has invited King County Councilmember Dembowski to attend since he is still undecided on the ordinance. The mayor elect will also be at there. We are a parish of immigrants and some of our families have been touched by this issue (Seattle already has this ordinance.) Please prayerfully consider spending this time to show support for this important action. If you do attend, be sure to sign the petition and mention you are from OLG.
