On Wednesday, October 21, we will begin a 4-day pilgrimage from Springfield to the Ohio Capitol in Columbus to elevate our response to attacks on the Haitian community and other immigrant communities in Ohio and across the nation.<\/p>\n

Will you join us? You can help send off the pilgrimage on Wednesday, join us for all or part of the march, and meet us in Columbus on Saturday.<\/p>\n

We walk the national road to Columbus as an embodiment of the choice we have as a nation:\u00a0Do we embody welcome, love of neighbor and stranger, mercy, and justice?<\/strong>\u00a0Or do we go the way of isolation, fear, and dehumanization?<\/p>\n

We choose love of neighbor.<\/p>\n

The walk will begin at 8 am on Wednesday, October 21 at Springfield City Plaza and end at 1 pm on Saturday, October 24 in Columbus. Please join us for the Rally at 1 PM at West Bank Park in Columbus at 1 PM on Saturday!<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Haitian community has 4 demands, which we carry to the statehouse:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \n

    Officially end ankle monitor program.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  2. \n

    ICE out of Springfield.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  3. \n

    Return Haitian people in detention to their families, including pastors.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  4. \n

    Permanent Protected Status for Haitian People.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Register here for any of the events and we will provide you with more information. Thank you for your solidarity.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
