Hear Our Neighbors’ Stories This Tuesday

Join Trinity’s Restorative Justice Committee on October 27 for an educational and prayerful listening session on immigration and its impact on our community.
by The Reverend John M. Pitzer on October 25, 2026

Our nation’s approach to immigration has for years been a prime topic for media coverage and political debate. Yet the dramatic human stories now unfolding in our community due to immigration law enforcement and practices are far less known and discussed.

How might we hear these stories, not only as citizens, but as a Trinity community striving to “love our neighbors, do justice, and walk humbly with God”?

We invite you to join us Tuesday, October 27, from 5:30–7 p.m. in Bishops Hall for a Restorative Justice Listening Session sponsored by the Trinity Restorative Justice Committee.

How might we hear these stories, not only as citizens, but as a Trinity community striving to “love our neighbors, do justice, and walk humbly with God”?

The program will be both educational and prayerful and will help us consider how we might live out Trinity’s mission of loving our neighbors, doing justice, and walking humbly with God.

There will be brief presentations from those working in the immigration legal system and in migrant child protection services. The evening will also include scripture readings, prayer, and meditative reflection.

Please consider joining us this Tuesday evening.
