🙏 Fe y Valor, NO Miedo ni Pánico.
A la luz de las recientes acciones de cumplimiento de ICE y la Patrulla Fronteriza, que han detenido a docenas—y posiblemente más de 200—de nuestros vecinos y familiares inmigrantes esta semana en el Condado de Kern, con amenazas de más detenciones en los condados de Fresno y Sacramento, compartimos esta declaración pastoral y profética.
Condenamos estos graves actos de intimidación y separación familiar que han generado temor y confusión generalizados en las comunidades inmigrantes de todo el estado.
Aquí tienes cómo protegerte a ti y a tus seres queridos:
📌 Guarda el número de teléfono de tu línea directa local de respuesta rápida.
📌 Lee y comparte materiales de Conozca Sus Derechos con tu comunidad.
📌 Mantente informado/a y conectado/a con tus vecinos.
Juntos, como una sola comunidad, podemos superar estas amenazas de ICE y la Patrulla Fronteriza. Protejámonos unos a otros sin culparnos ni dividirnos. Ahora es el momento de mantenernos fuertes, informados y unidos.

🙏 Faith and Courage, NOT Fear and Panic.
In light of recent enforcement actions by ICE and Border Patrol, which have detained dozens—and possibly over 200—of our immigrant neighbors and family members this week in Kern County, with threats of more in Fresno and Sacramento counties, we are sharing this pastoral and prophetic statement.
We condemn these gross acts of intimidation and family separation that have created widespread fear and confusion in immigrant communities across the state.
Here’s how you can protect yourself and your loved ones:
📌 Save your local rapid response hotline number.
📌 Read and share Know Your Rights materials with your community.
📌 Stay informed and connected to your neighbors.
Together, as one community, we can overcome these threats from ICE and CBP. Let us protect each other without scapegoating or division. Now is the time to stay strong, informed, and united.
