About
We explore ways in which Bethlehem can help immigrants coming into Denver (as well as other immigrant issues), and we’d love your help. Because of the current critical need, the group will initially focus on ways to help the immigrants coming into Denver.
To join, contact Cathy G. at cegood47@aol.com. All are welcome to join.
Next Meeting: TBD

Loving Our Neighbors with “Know Your Right’s” Cards
Many of our neighbors are at risk of being stopped by ICE or have ICE at their doors. Who are these neighbors? Ones who are not white, have an accent, or do not speak English well. Even people born in the US whose parents were also born here and those here legally with green cards are stopped and can be put into detention and some have been deported. It’s important for everyone to know their rights with ICE.
If you know someone who may be at risk, you may give them one of the red cards (located on the narthex bulletin board). The cards explain the rights in English on one side and in Spanish on the other side. If necessary, the cards can be cut apart by them with one side informing them of their rights and the other side to slip under a door or show through a closed window if ICE shows up at their home. Make sure they know that they should never open a door to ICE! If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Cathy at missions@bethlehem-lutheran.net.
