Philly clergy build an altar outside of ICE headquarters, demanding return of church protection from immigration arrests The demonstration was held Thursday, the day before a federal court will decide whether to restore an ICE policy that barred enforcement at houses of worship.

“ICE is trying to take away every safe space,” the Rev. Jonny Rashid, son of Egyptian immigrants and pastor of the West Philadelphia Mennonite Fellowship, told the crowd. “People who used to rely on the U.S. for protection are now living in fear.” @jonnyrashid.bsky.social
