BROADVIEW, Ill. - A large group of Chicago area Catholics marched to the ICE detention center in Broadview Saturday, hoping to share Communion with detainees locked inside.
What we know:
Saying that no human is illegal, hundreds of Catholic priests, nuns and lay people led a march from a Catholic church in Maywood to the ICE detention center in Broadview.
"We came out in great strength today," Fr. David Inczauskis of the Coaltition for Spiritual and Public Leadership said. "Catholics from all around Chicagoland have come out to support our sisters and brothers detained here."
Their goal – not to create chaos – but to share communion with the detainees locked inside the Broadview facility.
"Very clearly there are no strangers. We are all brothers and sisters in Christ," a priest said
