Presiding Bishop Yehiel Curry has released a statement on the SCOTUS immigration decisions.

“We are a people shaped by the Word of God, called by the apostle Paul to “welcome one another … just as Christ has welcomed you, for the glory of God” (Romans 15:7). As Lutherans, we confess a faith that compels us to welcome and protect the vulnerable, to honor the dignity God gives every human being, and to uphold laws and policies that provide refuge to those fleeing violence, persecution and profound hardship.”

A reflection on Easter. It is not only a season that the church observes. The celebration of resurrection is a way of life.
