Immigration and the Church

We live in a time where Communities of Faith are easily mistaken as Religious Country Clubs- groups of "Pious Folks" [generally speaking] who assemble to satisfy an outward appearance of the personal & social holiness required of them. ~Theon L. Johnson III

Theon is a dear friend of mine
We share a church-background
United Methodist

While I hesitate to claim denominations
The UMC is doing some admirable things
The Church is doing some admirable things

Unfortunately, we don't always get to see or hear about it.

Theon posted the above quote.
And a story about immigration.

I recently posted about immigration, so this news article, meshes well with where I am.
On many levels.
