On this Friday, July 12, there’s an opportunity to protest the conditions of the detention camps across the US.
Lights for Liberty: A Vigil to End Human Detention Camps, is an international event to speak out and stand up against the inhumane conditions faced by refugees at detention camps across our country.
There are two local events in our area on Friday, July 12. There’s one in Huntington Beach at 8:00 pm organized by HB Huddle, and there’s one in Los Alamitos starting at 6:30 pm that CLUE (Clergy & Laity United for Economic Justice) is promoting. We will be attending the Los Alamitos event as a group because Community UMC has coordinated with CLUE on events in the past, and the event will include speakers.
If you would like to join us. we can coordinate rides by meeting at CUMC on Friday at 5:45. There will also be a poster making party Wednesday, July 10, at 6:30. If you’re interested in making posters, please contact the church office for the location and address.
