Call For An Interfaith Solidarity Circle
May 17, 2013 | Chicago


Presented By:
The Parliament of the World's Religions | DePaul University Office of Religious Diversity
May 17, 2013 | Chicago, IL
3:00 p.m. - 4:00 p.m.
DePaul Center Concourse Level
1 E. Jackson


The Council for a Parliament for the World’s Religions is convening a special one hour solidarity circle for interfaith leaders to meet Catholic priest, Padre Alejandro Solalinde, and his Caravan Opening Doors To Hope. Solalinde is traveling the U.S. with a large group of victimized migrants turned activists who have experienced human rights abuses in Mexico. The story of 70,000 Central American brothers and sisters disappearing over the last few years, while Solalinde has been imprisoned and arrested for his work operating a network of shelters is shocking. We are helping share this story and honor his bravery. 
NOTE: This event is being produced to connect university-level Interfaith leaders with Padre Solalinde's entourage, but we are inviting you as guests of CPWR. 

Please find the event details in this flyer.

In this hour we will…

Hear words from Mexico's 2012 Human Rights Award recipient
Watch a short film documenting the reality of the migrant train in Mexico
Welcome Amnesty International to recognize the work of Padre Solalinde
Share our blessings and offerings to the migrant activists
Extend our wishes for peace and security to the caravan
Personally connect Chicago's young interfaith leaders with a hero to a humanitarian crisis
