Sr. Denise LaRock, an IWC member, joined more than 100 faith leaders and clergy from around the country in a peaceful prayer vigil against mass deportations in Texas and around the U.S. The protest was held on Wednesday, April 22 at the San Antonio ICE Enforcement check-in offices at 3523 Crosspoint.
LaRock is one of the few religious leaders to gain clearance at the immigration detention center in Dilley to meet and pray with families and children being held there. Pastor Dianne Garcia of Roca de Refugio and Nuevos Vecino in San Antonio was the vigil’s lead organizer. (see article in this section titled “Pastor Garcia Wins Human Rights Award.”)
