SUMMARY:Interfaith Prayer Service for Migrants
DESCRIPTION:As a people of faith\, we join together to lift up in prayer the migrants\, refugees\, and asylum seekers in our midst. \nIn these troubled times\, we remember the admonition from the Book of Leviticus: “The alien who resides among you shall be to you as the citizen among you; you shall love the alien as yourself…” [19:34]. And we\, of course\, remember that Jesus told us that we will be judged by whether we have welcomed the stranger. \nPlease join us in prayer and solidarity with all who dwell among us as aliens in a foreign land seeking our welcome.

SUMMARY:Crossing the Line: Finding America in the Borderland
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Author Sarah Towle \nSarah Towle\, author of Crossing the Line: Finding America in the Borderlands\, will be visiting Regis and making a special appearance here at St. Ignatius. \nCrossing the Line: Finding America in the Borderlands charts Sarah’s journey from outrage to activism to abolition as she exposes\, layer by “broken” layer\, the global deterrence to detention to deportation complex that is failing everyone—save the profiteers and demagogues who benefit from it. \nDeftly weaving together oral storytelling\, history\, and memoir\, Sarah illustrates how the US has led the retreat from post-WWII commitments to protecting human rights. Yet within the web of normalized cruelty\, she finds hope and inspiration in the extraordinary acts of ordinary people who prove\, every day\, there is a better way. By amplifying their voices and celebrating their efforts\, Sarah reveals that we can welcome with dignity those most in need of safety and compassion. In unmasking the real root causes of the so-called “crisis” in human migration\, she urges us to act before we travel much farther down our current course—one which history will not soon forgive or forget.

SUMMARY:Showing of the Documentary The Letter
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by Metro New York Catholic Climate Movement \nJoin us for a viewing and discussion of the documentary The Letter. Refreshments will be provided. \nIn 2015\, Pope Francis wrote Laudato Si’\, an encyclical about the environmental crisis. A few years later\, four voices that had gone unheard in global conversations were invited to a dialogue with the Pope. Hailing from Senegal\, the Amazon\, India\, and Hawai’i\, they bring perspective and solutions from the poor\, the indigenous\, the youth\, and wildlife. \nThis documentary follows their journey to Rome and the extraordinary experiences that took place there and is packed with powerfully moving personal stories.

SUMMARY:Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe Reservation: Y National Service Project
DESCRIPTION:Please join Ignatian Social Justice and the National Y in an inaugural Mission Immersion to build a strong community on the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe Reservation! \nThe construction of a new cluster of tiny homes will enable families\, volunteers\, and staff inhabiting the homes to achieve the stability\, independence\, and strength they need to build a more healthy and vibrant community. Immerse yourself in a Lakota Tribe cultural exchange. The group size is about 10 – 20 volunteers per trip (or wave). \nAll service trips include a mix of work\, rest\, and free time. Volunteering on this project is fun\, fast-paced\, and fulfilling. The Sioux YMCA tiny home project not only utilizes your skills and effort to build safe\, affordable homes that are desperately needed on the reservation but also offers an opportunity to become educated in American Indian culture. \nA site-seeing trip is included to experience the incredible Badlands National Park\, Custer State Park\, Black Hills\, Crazy Horse Monument\, and more! We welcome everyone who wants to contribute to this important National Service Project. Previous construction experience is not required\, however manual labor is a part of the trip\, so all participants should be in good health. A COVID vaccine is required. \nCOST AND LODGING: $375/week\nThis fee includes meals in the dining hall\, lodging in the volunteer center bunkhouse\, cultural activities and tours\, training\, a final awards banquet\, and airport shuttles from Rapid City\, Soth Dakota. Lodging for this option is a lower bunk (upper bunk not used) with shared bathrooms. Just like (but more fun than) going to Camp for a week. The cost does not include your airfare to Rapid City\, South Dakota.\nOR\n$175/week – If you arrange for your own lodging. This fee includes meals in the dining hall\, cultural activities and tours\, training\, a final awards banquet\, and airport shuttles from Rapid City\, South Dakota.
