John-Mark Hart’s Story

by CCDA Guest on March 3, 2017

For a couple of decades I've been watching my friends and neighbors suffer due to our nation's broken immigration system. I was slow—inexcusably slow—to join the work of changing this system. But over time the accumulation of painful memories became too substantial for me to ignore, especially the [...]

I walk for my son

by CCDA Guest on March 3, 2017

We walked into the apartment and the air was thick and stood still. Everyone sat frozen, avoiding our eyes. His sister stared at the television, his step-dad worked vigorously at a spot on the table. His mom was the only one... eyes locked. "Ven, siéntate, necesitamos hablar," she managed. He [...]

Chauncey Shillow’s Story

by CCDA Guest on March 3, 2017

Brad and Kim Bandy’s Story

by CCDA Guest on March 3, 2017

We find ourselves surfing the waves of social issue to social issue—trying to stay afloat, never letting ourselves be immersed with the understanding [...]

Camino Devotional 11: August 30, 2016

by CCDA Guest on August 30, 2016

LECTURA: ISAÍAS 53:2b-4 (NVI) 2 No había en él belleza ni majestad alguna; su aspecto no era atractivo y nada en su apariencia lo hacía deseable. 3 Despreciado y rechazado por los hombres, varón de dolores, hecho para el sufrimiento. Todos evitaban mirarlo; fue despreciado, y no lo [...]

In Legacy of César Chávez: Robert Chao Romero

by CCDA Guest on August 30, 2016

Inspired by César Chávez and the Chicana/o civil rights movement of the 1960’s, I am walking El Camino to declare that Jesus loves and cares for immigrants, and that our broken immigration system desperately needs to be reformed.   On March 17, 1966, Chávez and the farmworker community embarked [...]

Melina Rapazzini: Why I am doing El Camino

by CCDA Guest on August 30, 2016

As a middle class, suburban-dwelling, white girl, I did not meet immigrants or refugees in America until I sought out a narrative different from which I was raised.  Last summer I obtained a grant to organize and run a summer camp for children in Oakland, CA, who were largely refugees and [...]
