SUMMARY:Interfaith Prayer Vigil for Immigrant Safety with Temple Rodef Shalom
DESCRIPTION:Join Rabbi Saxe at this interfaith prayer vigil\, sponsored by Congregation Action Network\, to lift up the memory of those whose lives have been taken unjustly by our own country – a matter of sorrow and shame\, and of supreme importance to call out in this national emergency. Together we will honor the over 50 people who have died by the hands of ICE or in ICE custody since 2025 along with the over 15\,000 people taken in by ICE in Virginia\, 76% having no criminal record.  \nWe will gather to hear from faith voices proclaiming the importance of justice and welcome\, and we will remember the names of those we have lost. An optional procession will then go through the neighborhood carrying signs with the names and faces of those who have died. Signs will be provided. Come to join in community and act in public for what is right.⁩ \n \nAccommodations: None \n \nOrganization: Temple Rodef Shalom \n \nLivestream or Virtual: No\, it’s not
