What the F

I want to literally walk alongside my brother and sisters in the movement towards justice. I want to go on my knees and plead to God for justice and freedom. I want to no longer be frozen. I don't want to be indifferent.

Pray for me, that I can find words and muscles to move. Pray for all those hurting, that they would find Peace. Pray for all those that are doing harm, that Justice would find them.

I'll try to write more soon.

Over the summer, our girls’ small group read through Orlando Crespo’s, Being Latino in Christ, and I learned more about the different stories that each one of us had, as well as about the common history that we shared. I can’t say that reading that book was the beginning of my journey towards e...
