For Immediate Release
The coalition calling for the Labor Day, Sept. 7th, Immigrant Workers March, will be meeting on Friday, Sept. 4, 2009 at 10:30 am at Our Lady of Guadalupe Anglican Church (3442. W. 26th St.), to prepare the largest banner for the march on Monday. This banner will cover more than one blocks and will present a compelling message visible from overhead. We will also be building coffins to represent members of the immigrant community that have died crossing the borders. These coffins will be carried during the march along with the banner. We invite the media to come and bear witness to these activities.
Preparations for the Labor Day march will continue on Sunday, Sept. 6, at 1 p.m. at the Church, with logistics details sucha as where many buses will load and unload marchers and participatants. If you have any questions, please contact Father Jose Landaverde at
