Public Policy and Witness Weekly Prayers

Posts from the Hill

  • Public Witness Weekly Prayers – June 26
    This week, we pray For the People of Venezuela in the Wake of the Earthquakes, For Families Losing Protection, For Leaders Entrusted with the Common Good.
  • The Episcopal Church’s Response on the June 25 Supreme Court Opinions on Immigration
    The Episcopal Church laments the Supreme Court’s June 25 ruling in Mullin v. Al Otro Lado, which held that asylum seekers who are stopped before physically crossing into U.S. territory have not “arrived” in the United States for purpose of claiming asylum . . . We also regret the Supreme Court ruling in Mullin v. Doe, which cleared the way for the administration to terminate Temporary Protected Status for many Haitians and Syrians who have been able to live and work legally in the United States during a time of great instability in their home countries . . .
  • Public Witness Weekly Prayers – June 19
    This week, we pray For Diverse Representative Bodies that Reflect their Constituents, For Children Whose Schools Become Battlefields, For Dreamers Living in Uncertainty.
