We are heartbroken, enraged, and grieving what is happening in Minneapolis and across the country.

We name the lives lost through ICE violence, detention, and enforcement. Their names matter:

People killed in ICE detention or ICE-related custody and enforcement in 2026 alone:

• Geraldo Lunas Campos
• Parady La
• Victor Manuel Diaz
• Heber Sanchez Domínguez
• Luis Beltran Yanez-Cruz
• Luis Gustavo Nunez Caceres

And we add the names of those recently killed during federal enforcement actions:

Keith Porter Jr.
Renée Good
Alex Pretti

We mourn each of these lives. We grieve with their families and loved ones. We also grieve with the thousands of families being separated and the children being taken by ICE, sometimes from their homes and sometimes from schools, always through fear and force.

We also recognize that faith communities are rising together to resist these practices and to protect immigrants and their families, not just locally but across the country. Hundreds of clergy from many faith traditions recently gathered in Minneapolis to learn from local leaders and to stand in solidarity with people targeted by ICE enforcement, and many then took their witness into the streets and airports as part of this interfaith effort to resist ICE tactics rooted in violence and separation.

Let us be absolutely clear:

Families belong together.
Families should never be separated.
Children should never be taken from their caregivers.

We unequivocally support peaceful protest and the right of communities to demand accountability. What is happening is enraging. It is cruel. It is unacceptable. And it must stop.

Chadwick Sheep Farm in Kirksey brought their lambs and a ewe to First Presbyterian Church in Calvert City last Wednesday night for our Advent Service. The little black sheep is named Boaz. It was a wonderful time. Come join us for Christmas Eve service tomorrow night, Wednesday, December 24, 2025 at 6 p.m.

Last night at Advent was such a blessing! We sang Joy to the world at our tree outside and got to love on some precious baby lambs!
The word JOY is so important, not just this season but all year long. To us the J in Joy means Jesus first. The O in Joy means serving others as Jesus would. And then lastly the Y in Joy means after Jesus and Others YOU get to experience joy by loving others and sharing Gods love.
We hope you will join us next Wednesday for our candlelight Christmas Eve service at 6pm!
All are welcome 🎄

We grew our Advent Tree from barely 4 foot tall. Two summers ago we thought it died but we cared for it and to our surprise it started growing again. This year it makes such a beautiful Advent Tree. Beside the tree is a clothesline with gifts of Hope for everyone. We hope the gloves and mittens will keep you warm. Merry Christmas !
