Birmingham church meets to discuss immigration law

In the wake of Alabama’s controversial immigration law, one Birmingham church decided to bring folks together to take a look at the Christian perspective.

Folks gathered at Birmingham International Church Sunday night for a seminar on the topic. There was even a question and answer session after the presentation.

Organizers say it is important to stand on the side of those who do not have a voice.

“The undocumented alien is not going away. It's to everyone's benefit to have a good response,” said Reverend Ron Higey.

This group will hold another meeting next month to talk about how citizens can let their voice be heard on behalf of undocumented aliens.
