Letters of Support & Online Articles
From the Rev. Peter Morales, President of the UUA:
From the Rev. Ken Brown, District Executive of the Pacific Southwest District:
The congregations of the Pacific Southwest District of the Unitarian Universalist Association have a long history of support for immigrants. Our congregations have served as sanctuaries for refugees, supported various border organizations, and educated law makers about the issues involved. I want our sisters and brothers at Southside Presbyterian to know that we stand with them in this witness to truly implementing the gospel that calls on all people to come together as one. I am proud of the work done by our Unitarian Universalist congregation in Amado and I know that the Unitarian Universalists in the Tucson area will continue to work in the interfaith community to stand on the side of love and justice.
