Good Friday procession around Fresno ICE office calls for compassion for immigrants
By Gisselle Medina | they/them
More than 100 community members gathered Friday afternoon outside the Fresno Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) office to mark Good Friday with prayer, song, and scripture, centering their message on compassion for immigrant families.
Good Friday is a Christian observance commemorating the day Jesus Christ was crucified, a moment believers recognize as his ultimate sacrifice for humanity’s sins. During the gathering, pastors guided attendees through the Stations of the Cross, a series of 14 reflections that trace key moments from Jesus’ sentencing to his death and burial.
