Immigrant sanctuary gains popularity in Arizona church
Rosa Robles Loreto, a 41 year old undocumented immigrant, seeks sanctuary at Southside Presbyterian Church in Tucson after a four year wait for leniency. She is the third migrant to seek sanctuary in Arizona this year as activists push for immigration reform and national churches weigh readiness to provide refuge. The movement, revived from the 1980s, draws attention from national advocates and clergy planning for broader adoption in cities nationwide.
