Hundreds march to the ICE building in Milwaukee for a prayer vigil in support of migrant children and their families on Aug. 7, 2019. The vigil took place during the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) Churchwide Assembly held that week. It took place on the same day the ELCA declared itself a “sanctuary church body,” signaling its support for immigrants. Both came in response to President Trump’s policies at the United States border with Mexico and his pledge to deport millions. (Episcopal News Service)
