Bay Area Jesuit Groups to Hold Mass and Reception in Support of Immigration Reform, Feb. 5 in San Jose part of a nationwide effort to advocate for civil discourse and movement on immigration law reform,
five Bay Area Jesuit institutions will hold a Catholic Mass and reception February 5 at Most Holy Trinity Church in San Jose. The theme of the 2 p.m. gathering will be "The Jesuit Family Welcomes the Stranger," and will feature testimonials by immigrants from several continents discussing their experiences and challenges in America.
Students, friends, and immigration-law reform advocates from Santa Clara University, Bellarmine College Preparatory high school, Sacred Heart Nativity School, Most Holy Trinity Parish, and the California Province of Jesuits will be in attendance. At the end of the Mass at Most Holy Trinity Church, 2040 Nassau Drive, San Jose, CA 95122,
participants will present Congresswoman Zoe Lofgren (Graduated from Santa Clara University) with letters to support humane immigration law reform.
Jesuits and other Catholics believe the current patchwork of state laws too often casually destroys lives while offering no path to legal residency for otherwise law-abiding immigrants or relief for adults who were brought to the U.S. as small children.

What involvement did those five Jesuit organizations have in the January 22 Walk for Life in San Francisco?
Do a little investigation and report it back here.
They're delivering letters to her, not crowning her the may queen.
Knock of the "radical" talk--you overuse the hyped phrases.
How's this for a title of an article about a certain website: "Looney, right-wing website offers wacky misrepresentations of Jesuits"
Describing her consistent position on killing the unborn as radical is an understatement.

It's legal, how does that make it "radical"? The point is this: when you use these negative labels words and phrases EVERY TIME to describe people with whom you disagree it makes your point less compelling. Your argument should stand on its own merits.
OK, then do think that the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass should the used as a cheap theater gimmick?
No--where is that being done?
Pro-abortion Representative Zoe Lofgren has a 100 percent approval rating from NARAL. Did the Catholics at Holy Trinity parish present any letters to her about this?
Wow, there is a great deal of useful data above!
