DAY 5 of the Spring ‘26 Spes Service Experience: Migration and the Common Good ✈️🏜️

~ Today we went to a coffee shop to get our day started and prepare us for the day ahead. It was a heavy day as we walked over to the Federal Courthouse and sat in to hear some detention/preliminary hearings.

Afterwards, we learned more about End Migrant Criminalization a group of organizations, community groups, and individuals working to end the mass criminalization and deportation of migrants through Operation Streamline in Tucson. Then we spent the rest of the day outside working on a garden project to help build an artisanal kitchen.

We ended the day by enjoying dinner outside and then getting a sweat treat! We’re enjoying all these learning experiences as we approach our final day in Arizona.

DAY 3
Today we visited Arivaca, Arizona located in Southern Arizona, near the U.S.-Mexico border, surrounded by mountains and desert grassland. Here we did a water drop for those that could potentially come through and may need water. Though, this town has been a focal point for anti-migrant militia groups. We reflected on the hike we took and reminded ourselves that the hike we did was a very small fraction of those who cross the border go through. After our hike, we headed to the towns public library and had lunch. We were able to make a stop at Dutch Bro’s Coffee!

Afterwards, we headed to Tucson’s Global Justice Center where we heard Todd Miller a journalist and writer who posts weekly for The Border Chronicle. He has researched and written about border issues for more than 15 years. Finally we ended the evening with another homemade traditional meal as we enjoyed the sunny and chilly weather.
