“Two North Alabama ministers say their faith led them to join hundreds of clergy handcuffed together in a Washington, D.C., protest Monday against proposed immigration laws.

“God’s people are called to welcome the stranger,” said the Rev. Gene Lankford, a Methodist minister from Marshall County, quoting Bible verses from Leviticus and Matthew. “You are to love the alien as yourself.”

Lankford is also the coordinator of Hispanic issues for the North Alabama Conference of the United Methodist Church.”
