“This is not who we are. It is not who we want to be,” Smith said. “Refugees enrich our communities throughout the United States. They bring joy, and they make us better.”
It is Sunday morning, do you know what your church is doing? An Episcopal priest and ‘dreamer’ spoke
in Austin, TX yesterday. Rev.
Nancy Frausto.
In
June of last year, we learned that Episcopal Migration Ministries, which is not a separate non-profit organization but is
embedded in the Episcopal Church itself, is 99.5% funded by the federal government—that would be you, the taxpayer.
So,
as you read the following news, keep in mind that your money pays for political
activities of the Episcopal church.
The
church (one of nine federal resettlement contractors) held a regular gathering
of the faithful in Austin, Texas and Trump immigration and refugee policy was
the ‘premiero’ topic of discussion. What a surprise! If you are an Episcopalian, you might consider
finding another church (just saying!).
From Episcopal News Service: Trump administration’s policies loom large in
joint hearing on immigration
[Episcopal
News Service – Austin, Texas] Few issues were as primed for spirited debate heading into the 79th
General Convention as immigration.
The Episcopal Church’s triennial gathering is being held in the capital of this
border state amid a continuing uproar over a Trump administration policy of
“zero tolerance” toward immigrants coming into the country, a policy that
involved until recently the separation of children from their parents in
detention.
General Convention is considering nine resolutions relating to
migration and immigration, and all nine were on the agenda July 7 at a joint
hearing of two legislative committees at the JW Marriot hotel, just west of the convention
center.
About two dozen people testified, including Central American bishops,
border state priests, Episcopalians active in refugee resettlement and at least
one “dreamer,” the Rev. Nancy Frausto, who like other dreamers was brought to the United
States illegally when she was a child. She now is a priest in the Diocese of
Los Angeles.
In case you couldn’t read the Reverend’s
t-shirt logo in the above photo. Raised fist is a long time symbol of
communism.
“The
800,000 dreamers need to have the Episcopal Church stand behind them, and not
just them but all immigrants,” Frausto said, speaking in favor of Resolution
C033, which puts the church on record as respecting the dignity of immigrants
and outlines how public policy should reflect that belief.
The
two social justice committees, one focused on United States policy and the
other on international policy, held the hearing to take input on resolutions
covering a range of topics, including providing sanctuary to immigrants facing
deportation, condemning the separation of migrant families, supporting Haitians
who are poised to face deportation and calling for legislation to give
permanent legal status to the dreamers through federal legislation known as the
DREAM Act.
Resolutions passed by General Convention can be used for advocacy
work by the Office of Government Relations, which is based in
Washington, D.C., and conducts nonpartisan advocacy through direct appeals to
congressional offices and by mobilizing the Episcopal Public Policy Network.
Angela
Smith testified of her work with Saint Francis Migration Ministries in Kansas,
an affiliate of Episcopal Migration Ministries, one of the nine agencies which
contract with the U.S. State Department to resettle refugees in this country.
The number of resettlements has plummeted under Trump, which Smith argued is
affecting the country’s standing in the world.
Don’t
you just want to barf when you hear the tired line—-this is not who we
are! Does Ms. Smith really think this tripe moves us?

Episcopal denomination).
Apparently
no one objected because this report at Episcopal News Service does not report that anyone at the
gathering was critical of the direction the church is going.
Here
(below) are the big nine ‘non-profit’ organizations that monopolize all refugee
resettlement in the US. The six ‘religious’ contractors are part of the politically active
Religious Left.
I
post these as often as I can because new readers need to know that these
quasi-government groups (funded with taxpayer dollars) are also politically
pushing for more immigration of all sorts in Washington.
The
number in parenthesis is the percentage of their income paid by you (the taxpayer) to place the
refugees and get them signed up for their
services (aka welfare)! From
most recent accounting, here.
Ethiopian Community Development Council (ECDC) (secular)(93%)
International Rescue Committee (IRC) (secular) (66.5%)
US Committee for Refugees and Immigrants (USCRI) (secular) (98%)
