Every decor rageous patriotic dreamers lose their status. Every day the American Dream slips further out of reach. As members of congress, we have a moral responsibility to act now to protect dreamers who are the pride of our nation and are american in every day but on paper. I use this occasion as opposing this bill to speak further about social justice in america.

Yet our dreamers hang in limbo with a cruel cloud of fear and uncertainty above them. The republican moral cowardest must end. Members of congress are trustees of t

The University of Miami’s Christian ministries are preparing a series of COVID-19-adapted Good Friday and Easter services for the campus community. Events include spiritual and secular celebrations, from the Stations of the Cross on the UC Patio on Good Friday to several Easter Sunday services and an Easter Egg hunt at the Wesley United Methodist Center.
“The three days from Thursday night to Sunday night are the climax of the Christian year,” said the Rev. Frank Corbishley, chaplain at St. Bede Episcopal Chapel. “I find it incredible that we have to do most of this virtually for the second year in a row. On the other hand, I am extremely grateful for the technology that allows us to do what we have been doing.”
