DOOR, a ministry of Mennonite Mission Network, in collaboration with the Young Adult Volunteer program of the Presbyterian Church (PCUSA) offers young adult volunteers the opportunity to "dwell" one year in urban communities like Gregory Avenue in Hollywood, CA and explore vocation and what lifelong missional Christianity looks like in the 21st century.
In 2008, members of Alterna (LaGrange, GA) spent the entire summer living at DOOR's Community House (a partnership with First Presbyterian of Hollywood) in this predominantly working class Latino immigrant neighborhood.
This video is Alterna's attempts at providing you, the viewer, with snapshots of what incarnational ministry can look like and how fearless love truly does overcome a loveless fear that is paralyzing far too many of us.

OK, as Christians I agree we must show God's love to illegal aliens; however, as U.S. citizens should we be supporting laws to prevent illegal aliens illegally entering the U.S.? Maybe it depends on whether you are leftie or rightie?
