The Lord says:
"Build up, build up a highway! Clear a road! Remove all obstacles From the road of My people!"

(Isaiah 57:14)

A sacred journey from Adelanto ICE Detention Center to the Metropolitan Detention Center and Federal Building in Los Angeles to draw attention and cry out for immediate action to end the deplorable conditions and deaths at the detention centers throughout California and across the country. Now is the time to end cruel immigration policy and ICE detention centers.

Organized by Clergy & Laity United for Economic Justice (CLUE), Nefesh LA, and Sacred Resistance, in partnership with No Camps California, Shut Down Adelanto Coalition, Inland Coalition for Immigrant Justice, and Matthew 25 SoCal, LA Voice, and UNITE HERE Local 11

We invite the community to join us in this multifaith pilgrimage. It will mark the next chapter in a daily practice of faithful witness and action by clergy and the faithful in immigration courts, detention centers, policymakers' offices, houses of worship, and people’s homes as we tend to and advocate for the dignity and safety of our immigrant community members.

As religious leaders and community members, we will walk to bring awareness to the targeted immigrant community and to serve as a voice of protest for those for whom it is not safe to speak out.

A note on the walk: We will walk from 12-16 miles a day for many days in a row on both roads and rugged terrain. If you want to join for the full pilgrimage, please register by Tuesday 9/8 so we can prepare for the logistics of your lodging and food. We will hold an information session the week of 9/8 for walkers doing the full pilgrimage. Now is the time to start preparing for this distance with daily walking.

You are welcome to come for a day or part of a day
