Church Near California-Mexico Border Plans Welcome Statue to Immigrants
POSTED 2:55 PM, OCTOBER 7, 2018, BY ASSOCIATED PRESS, UPDATED AT 02:53PM, OCTOBER 7, 2018
SAN DIEGO (AP) — A California church near the U.S.-Mexico border is planning to erect a hilltop welcome statue to send a message of hope to immigrants.
The Los Angeles Times reports Saturday that a 40-foot-tall (12-meter-tall) monument of Mary, mother of Jesus, that was inspired by the Statue of Liberty is planned for the parking lot of Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church in San Ysidro.
The statue will be named “Welcome the Stranger.” Supporters are trying to raise $1 million to build it by early next year.
Bishop Robert McElroy of the Roman Catholic Diocese of San Diego says the monument will serve as a reminder of immigrants’ contributions to the United States.
Artist Jim Bliesner says he drew inspiration for the design from community members.

The Church advocating people to break OUR laws! Shut them down.
They all need to lose their tax-exempt status.
Churches are NOT above the law in this country.
Now they are turning into a human trafficking ring and dumping people in our neighborhoods!
Go help them on THEIR soil with YOUR money!
NO STATUE!!!
OR MAYBE WE SHOULD ERECT ONE RIGHT NEXT TO IT WITH AN ILLEGAL ALIEN BEHIND BARS!ILLEGAL ALIENS HAVE "BROKEN" OUR IMMIGRATION SYSTEM
DO NOT REWARD THEM - DEPORT THEM ALL
