#Journey4Justice2022 was welcomed by members of @border_partners and members of the community in Columbus, New Mexico. Mayor Esequiel Salas, who is also a priest, welcomed us and blessed the newly renovated cross. Everyone mingled with locals and visited. We met the man who built the cross dedicated to immigrants who have died migrating. The plaque also acknowledged those in the CBP who have died. They explained that this was controversial in the town. But they decided to appease the community members who asked.
