Chicago faith leaders brace for mass deportations, cease hosting in-person Spanish services: report

Chicago faith leaders have reportedly assembled to discuss their role in how they can protect undocumented immigrants from deportation.

"Advocates and local leaders warn that mass deportations could affect undocumented, mixed-status and new migrant families alike," according to The Chicago Tribune.

Lincoln United Methodist Church was once a "sanctuary" for undocumented immigrants. Now, services accommodating Spanish speakers will occur "virtually every Sunday from now on," the Tribune reported.
