Hi there,
Perhaps you heard me on Boston Public Radio this morning talking about community support for immigrants amid the ongoing operations of the Trump deportation machine.
As I said on Jim and Margery's show, ICE presence in Lynn and the greater Boston area is nothing new, and is becoming more flagrant.
These operations are not targeting criminals but our trusted and respected neighbors who have roots in our neighborhoods, businesses, houses of worship, schools and playgrounds. ICE does not respect due process. They have taken people off the streets without even fully identifying them. It is difficult for family members and concerned friends to find where these individuals have been taken, and very difficult even for lawyers to get access to them.
A Message from Rev. Dr. Victoria Weinstein

Members and friends of our congregation partner with Essex County Community Organization (ECCO), LUCE Immigrant Justice Network of MA, Boston Immigrant Justice Accompaniment Network (BIJAN), and Neighbor2Neighbor in Lynn to connect people with opportunities to practice compassion and to resist authoritarianism.
Thank you for stopping by. Love is at the center or nothing is. Please visit us here at uucgl.org for more information and links in our Social Justice section of the website, and join us for worship and programming any time, as we would love to welcome you to our community of faith in action.
