The Sierra Vista Herald reports on an Arizona church that is standing for justice in the midst of all the anti-immigrant sentiment by the state legislature and governor:
St. John’s Episcopal Church in Bisbee (AZ) is hosting the second day of “Art Has No Borders,” a silent art auction and raffle/fundraising event for border justice. Coinciding with the 5th Annual “God Has No Borders” Naco Border Procession, which was held yesterday, this event will raise funds for four border justice advocates: Episcopal Border Ministries, The Naco Migrant Resource Center, Humanitarian Border Solutions, and The Naco Wellness Initiative.
Photographs of some of the art is here. The Rev. Ben Somerville has contributed his work to the project.
