Building a Just and Sacred Society
CLUE brings together clergy and lay leaders of all faiths with the marginalized, the unheard, and the least protected—low-wage workers and immigrants—in the cause of a just economy that works for everyone, not just those at the top.
Join us in sacred resistance Tuesdays and Thursdays in Los Angeles and Orange County
We join together in song and prayer to make visible the suffering of families ripped apart by ICE. Families belong together. Everyone here belongs here.
