Lutheran Engagement and Advocacy in Nevada continues to follow developments across the Sierra Pacific and Grand Canyon Synods regarding immigration and community safety.

We are aware of recent reports of ICE activity and community response in California. These reports reflect a broader national landscape where immigration enforcement actions are raising concern, prompting public protest, and leading to policy conversations at local and state levels.

We invite congregations and partners to:

• Share local observations or verified reports of immigration enforcement activity
• Communicate any pastoral or community care needs arising from these situations
• Stay connected as we work to provide faith-based resources, education, and advocacy grounded in dignity, accompaniment, and justice

As Lutherans, we are guided by our call to welcome the stranger, accompany our neighbors in fear, and advocate for policies that uphold human dignity and the common good.
