Dear Pastors and other friends,
We've been calling Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE) offices to ask them not to deport Max. First we called ICE in Omaha, then called them in St. Paul, today we need to call the ICE offices in Washington DC. Time may be running out for Max...the facility he's in is a 72-hour transfer facility on the grounds of the airport in Alexandria, Louisiana. Please, if you have called ICE before, call again today. If you haven't made a call for Max yet, today is the day. Here is the phone number: 202-732-3000. When I called, the person who answered listened to me politely and took down my message. I let him know that I know Max and how I know him, that Max is not a threat, and asked that Max be considered for relief under their prosecutorial discretion guidelines. I also gave Max's case number: A# 094-338-085 and repeated his name to be sure they knew who I was talking about. Please spread the word, and please keep praying that God will find a way to deliver Max back to his family and congregation. Thank you so much, Shana UPDATE at 12:33: As more people have been calling, only about 50 percent are getting through. If you get a confusing recording when you call, just keep trying. Comments are closed.
