Unitarians may take the summer off, but the issues facing our nation continue on. One of these
issues is the policy of ICE and the detention of undocumented persons, some of whom have
lived and worked in this country for years. The Unitarian Universalist Association has joined
other faith organizations in protesting this policy and asks us to live our principles through
action. So what can you do? Over the summer, there are two actions a month you can
participate in. On the third Tuesday of each month at 1pm a group of faith leaders and
concerned citizens gather outside the ICE offices in Burlington for a Jericho Walk. A Jericho
Walk is a silent march through the neighborhood and around the ICE building. On the last
Sunday of the month, faith leaders and citizens gather at the South Bay Detention Center in
Boston and stand outside the area of the detention center that houses people picked up by ICE.
This show of support is strongly anticipated and appreciated by the detainees, who appear at
the windows to wave and post messages. Those who are going meet in the church parking lot
and drive down together for the events. If you are interested in attending, contact Susan Cooper .
