Triad United Methodists condemn Trump's 'morally reprehensible' immigration polices
The Rev. Sarah Howell of Green Street United Methodist Church speaks at a solidarity rally in 2021 for people in Elizabeth City protesting the police killing of Andrew Brown Jr. Howell is among dozens of United Methodist Church ministers in the Triad who signed a statement strongly criticizing the immigration policies of President Donald Trump.
