Love as Action: Quaker Public Witness
Love as Action: Quaker Public Witness
01/17/2026
Please join the American Friends Service Committee and Des Moines Valley Friends in bearing witness to the destruction and dehumanization that federal immigration actions are inflicting in our communities.
On Saturday January 17 at 11:00am we will gather at the corner of 42nd St. and Grand Ave. for one hour of silent public worship.
Our hope is that our presence will give heart to all who see us – including through media and online communications – and remind everyone of our moral obligations to one another.
