One of my roles in the Accompaniment & Sanctuary Coalition is education. I teach church and other groups about immigration, what’s going on at the border, and how they can help. Ideally, participants will act on what they learn.
This past summer I had the honor to teach a church group in West Virginia via Zoom. This group was any teacher’s dream as they were eager to put their new knowledge into action. One of the outcomes of that connection was this video, a six-and-a-half minute labor of love to support the work of my friends Dora and Pancho at the U.S./Mexico border.
My friends Dora and Pancho are beautiful people who are helping migrants forced to wait in Mexico in towns that have very little in the way of resources. I hope that what you see in this video is people taking care of other people, loving their neighbors. If you are moved by this video, or if you want to do some end-of-year giving, please consider supporting the work of Dora and/or Pancho.

Whether you give or not, please watch the lovely video. Happy holidays.
