Minnesota faith groups sue DHS over access to immigrant detainees It's at least the second lawsuit challenging the federal government's policy of barring faith leaders from accessing some DHS facilities.

“Pastoral care is the heart & soul of what our Pastors & Deacons are called to provide in their congregations & around the community,” Bishop Jen Nagel of the #ELCA #Minneapolis Area Synod said, “particularly during times of stress, grief, isolation, & transition.”

This Sunday we are reminded that Martin Luther has created the greatest ‘NOT’ joke of all time 400 years ago in composing A Mighty Fortress Is Our God: Though hordes of devils fill the land all threatening to devour us, we tremble — Not! #elca

Amid ICE raids, Minneapolis rabbi and pastor show solidarity in action The partnership includes joint worship — and a $1 million fundraising drive for Minneapolis families affected by the siege.

“We need more chutzpah, creativity, trust & connection,” said Osorto, the pastor of San Pablo/St. Paul Lutheran Church. “I think our collective work has been powerful & grounding for our communities to hear, because they could then imagine what it might be.” #ELCA

These Christians are very different from the ones I practice Christianity with. They believe in worshipping Jews and will do Israels every bidding. I've had dark convos with them and they are not Christian practices as I understand the faith. #ELCA

Original post on mastodon.online
