Religious leaders here are not mincing words. They have repeatedly used the word "evil."
"Detention and deportation are acts that wound the body of Christ, and deny the dignity of God's people."

A group of hundreds of faith in coalition who started at a Maywood church just arrived at the detention center for a eucharistic procession.

For any Catholic, the sight of a Eucharistic Procession being turned away at the gates of the destination is the embodiment of Jesus being denied entrance. You don't have to be Catholic to get the symbolism in that!
