Yesterday we took a long three hour drive to Douglass/Auga Prieta, another border town. We stopped at a copper mine in Bisbee and drove through a few old western towns such as Tombstone. We arrived at the border and crossed into Agua Prieta where we talked to a migrant assistant agency about the local immigration issue. We walked the around the quiet town and visited a local church and shelter for migrants called la sagrada familia. After touring the area we took a short break with a usual PB and J lunch. We headed back to the car to drive home before the rain started. The car ride was full of interesting conversation with Father Neely about some controversial catholic teachings. We continued to learn about the immigration issues at the different borders. As we embark on the final two days at the comedor we look forward to learning more about immigration and hope to better understand SB1070. Un fuerte abrazo a todos.
P.S. happy 20th anniversary patti & ken.
