Weekly Vigil at Detention Center

Friday vigil returns to Broadview Detention Center

The weekly Friday morning vigil that was temporarily moved to 101 W Congress Parkway has been moved back to the Broadview Detention Center because the facility has been re-opened for processing of deportations.  

Interfaith Vigil for Immigrant Justice  at Broadview Detention Center

Join us the first Friday of every month for an interfaith prayer vigil at Broadview Detention Center at 1930 Beach St, Broadview, IL 60153.  Every other Friday of the month the vigil is centered on the Catholic Rosary.  Everyone is always welcome to participate any Friday of the month in this important and powerful public witness.  

Join the Chicago New Sanctuary Coalition, Sisters of Mercy, Sisters and Brothers of Immigrants, Jewish Council on Urban Affairs, Office for Immigrant Affairs & Immigration Education of the Archdiocese of Chicago, and other members of the religious community in a vigil to stand in solidarity with those being deported, the families of those in detention or facing deportation and be a public witness to the injustices of our broken immigration system.
