Portland, Ore.--Today at noon, members of the Portland Faith and Immigrant Communities held a prayer vigil and fast in downtown Portland in response to Arizona's Racial Profiling Law, SB1070. Faith leaders prayed and called for an end to the targeting and separation of immigrant families and for passage of comprehensive immigration reform.
Isaiah 58, which inspires this day of action, teaches that a “true fast” is undertaken in service of “loosening the chains of injustice.”
