The caravan left 12 April from Los Angeles and arrived at the border in San Diego.

The caravan stopped at 14-ti predetermined points that represent the sign of the cross, symbolizing the path of the suffering of Jesus Christ.

One of their stops was at the St. John’s Episcopal Church in Chula Vista, where the caravan participants reunited and expressed their sympathy to the immigrants.

“The wall is a reminder of a huge wound that we must heal. Family separation is something that affects so many people in this country,” said Pastor Nancy Frausto of the Episcopal Diocese of Los Angeles.

Frausto, the first Latin American pastor in the Episcopal Diocese in Los Angeles, is also a member of the DACA program.

“This event, in addition to being personal to me, is a reminder to all of us how important it is to take action. There are more than 700 “Dreamers” in this country who pray and hope that one day they will be able to come to their country of origin, meet their grandparents and return to this country again,” Frausto said.

The caravan completed its journey at the Border Friendship Park, where the participants conducted a blessing and communion service to show unity.
