SANCTUARY CHURCH (2016)
church leaders throughout the Twin Cities took a stand in support of undocumented immigrants seeking refuge. It's part of a nationwide trend in response to President-elect Donald Trump's hard-line immigration stance. More than 150 clergy men and women from across Minnesota attended an ISAIAH sanctuary congregation network meeting, held at the Lutheran Church of the Redeemer in St. Paul. Members met to declare their places of worship as sanctuaries. Trump has said several times that he would deport undocumented immigrants. The role of a sanctuary church, therefore, would be to create a sacred space of refuge for immigrant individuals and their families who are in immediate danger of deportation. The sanctuary churches would have individuals residing in their place of worship for an undetermined amount of time, while the community of Sanctuary works on the stay of removal orders for each person residing in the space or until those individuals can safely arrive to another place of sanctuary. Pastor James Erlandson of the Lutheran Church of the Redeemer says churches have been a place of refuge for those in need for quite some time now. "This is to be a community of love hospitality and fellowship for those living in our care," Erlandson said. "The only parameters set to declare your place of worship as sanctuaries is to make it very public. All other guidelines are at the discretion of individual churches and their congregants." Each sanctuary church must provide a private space for a person or people to live in 24/7, washing facilities, kitchen or food preparation facilities and accessibility for family visitations. JaNaè Bates, United Church of Christ Minster communications director for ISAIAH, says the community is also supporting the trend of sanctuary churches. "Undocumented immigrants should not live in fear," she said. "These people are our friends, neighbors, coworkers and family." There are currently 20 additional churches in various stages of deciding to be either sanctuary or sanctuary supporting. Church leaders are not alone in their stance. Minneapolis and St. Paul, as well as a number of other Minnesota communities, are now known as "sanctuary cities," meaning the city would prevent local police from enforcing federal immigration laws. Just recently, city of Northfield officials announced they are considering becoming a sanctuary city for undocumented immigrants. They'll vote later this month. However, Trump has said if authorities in sanctuary cities do not help with the deportation of illegal immigrants, he will cut federal law enforcement aid. This could mean city police departments would lose a significant amount of money. Rep. John Culberson from Texas has chimed in, proposing a policy with the Department of Justice to make sure cities comply. The policy would force sanctuary cities nationwide to owe a refund of every dollar from federal grant programs over the last 10 years.

Christ the Redeemer statue STORYLINE: The statue of Christ the Redeemer, Rio de Janeiro's most famous icon, is celebrating its seventy-fifth anniversary on Thursday with a large celebration and the official consecration of the small chapel that sits on the bottom of the 125-foot (38.1 metre) statue. Although there are several theories regarding the statue's conception, many believe the monument's final design was authored by the artist Carlos Oswald and the French Sculptor Paul Landowski and designed by architect and engineer Heitor da Silva Costa. The idea to build the Christ was conceived by the Catholic Church in 1922 in order to erect a symbol to celebrate the centennial anniversary of Brazil's independence. The Christ was first commissioned in 1931 by Cardinal Sebastiao Leme who wanted to be able to see the image of Jesus Christ from every part of the city. Archbishop of Rio de Janeiro Eusebio Scheid said it is important the statue is more than just a tourist attraction. The statue is covered in soapstone and is considered to be the largest art deco sculpture in the world. It sits on top of Corcovado mountain overlooking Rio's smaller mountains and famous beaches. With the consecration of the chapel, tourist and Brazilians alike will have the opportunity to wed or become baptised at the foot of the Christ. "It would be very original and nice to be able to get married here by this monument. It would be fabulous," Carlos Garcia, a Chilean tourist. The monument was listed as one of Brazil's historic heritages in 1973.
