Communion There's no bread. The bakers have gone into hiding. The seats at the table are empty. The Twelve are out marching with the thousands. The streets are filled with a new song. Only Judas sits at Target Plaza, counting his silver, while Pontius Pilate issues a carefully-worded statement. Meanwhile, the centurions have quotas to fill. But out on the streets there's a Communion. Jesus takes the city in his hands and says, "This is my body, broken for you" Rob Hardy February 2, 2026
Case 5:26-cv-00415-FB Document 9 Filed 01/31/26 Page 1 of FILED January 31, 2026 CLERK, U.S. DISTRICT COURT IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS SAN ANTONIO DIVISION WESTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS BY: Jaemie Herndon DEPUTY ADRIAN CONEJO ARIAS, and L.C.R., a Minor Child by and through His Parent and Guardian Adrian Conejo Arias, Petitioners, VS. KRISTI NOEM, in Her Official Capacity as Secretary of the United States Department of Homeland Security; PAMELA BONDI, in Her Official Capacity as Attorney General of the United States; TODD LYONS, in His Official Capacity as Acting Director, United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement; DAREN MARGOLIN, in His Official Capacity as Acting Director of the Executive Office of Immigration Review; and JOHN DOE, in His Official Capacity as the Warden of the Dilley Immigration Processing Center in Dilley, Texas, Respondents. CIVIL CASE NO. SA-26-CV-415-FB OPINION AND ORDER OF THE COURT Before the Court is the petition of asylum seeker Adrian Conejo Arias and his five-year-old son for protection of the Great Writ' of habeas corpus. They seek nothing more than some modicum of due process and the rule of law. The government has responded. The case has its genesis in the ill-conceived and incompetently-implemented government pursuit of daily deportation quotas, apparently even if it requires traumatizing children. This Court and others regularly send undocumented people to prison and orders them deported but do so by proper legal procedures. Ex parte Bollman, 8 U.S. (4 Cranch) 75(1807); Sir William W. Blackstone, Commentaries on the Laws of England (1765-1769); see also Magna Carta, Article 39.

Before before,
before time learned to tick,
Love was already speaking. Not alone. Never alone.
Love needs an Other
and God was never lonely. The Father:
source without origin,
a generosity so full
it spills into begetting.
Not power clenched,
but gift endlessly given. The Son:
Word spoken so perfectly
He is the Saying itself.
Facing the Father,
receiving everything,
and giving it all back
“Yes” answering “Yes”
without remainder. Between Them
no space, yet room to breathe
the Spirit moves.
Not a thing, not a force,
but the living between,
the joy that happens
when Love is returned.
The kiss, the fire, the breath
that is both shared and sharing. No hierarchy of distance,
no rivalry of wills.
Each Person wholly God,
each forever turned toward the Others. 
Identity born not from isolation
but from communion. Here is motion without change,
rest that is alive,
unity that does not erase difference. 
A circle that never closes
because it is always opening. And from this eternal exchange this laughter of light,
this music with no first note
creation overflows. We are not made by a solitary ruler, but by a God who is relationship itself.
Which is why love costs us something,
why joy requires sorrow,
why we ache to belong. To be made in this image
is to be invited
into the dance 
to give, to receive,
to let the Spirit teach our rhythmless hearts
how to move. Father, Son, and Holy Spirit:
not three Gods, not one alone,
but Love knowing itself,
forever, and calling us by name.
As a deer longs for flowing streams, so my soul longs for you, O God. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When shall I come and behold the face of God? My tears have been my food day and night, while people say to me continually, "Where is your God?" These thing's I remember, as I pour out my soul: how I went with the throng and led them in procession to the house of God, with glad shouts and songs of thanksgiving, a multitude keeping festival. Why are you cast down, 0 my soul, and why are you disquieted within me? Hope in God, for I shall again praise him, my help & my God. Psalms 42:1-6a

Psalm 37: Part I Noli aemulari BCP p. 633 Do not fret yourself because of evildoers; * do not be jealous of those who do wrong. For they shall soon wither like the grass, * and like the green grass fade away. Put your trust in the LoRD and do good; * dwell in the land and feed on its riches. Take delight in the LORD, * and he shall give you your heart's desire. Commit your way to the LORD and put your trust in him, * and he will bring it to pass.

ICE activity is increasing in Phoenix. BE PREPARED 1: lf you see ICE, report it to Puente at (480) 506-7437 or People First Project at (888) 354-4594. 2: Use a whistle to alert the community immediately around you. 3 short bursts means ICE is in the area. 3 long bursts means ICE is detaining someone. 3: Film. It is completely lawful to film ICE. You cannot interfere with their operations, but you can and should take video.
How long, O LORD? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me? How long must I bear pain in my soul and have sorrow in my heart all day long? How long shall my enemy be exalted over me? Consider and answer me, O LORD my God! Give light to my eyes, or I will sleep the sleep of death, and my enemy will say, "I have prevailed"; my foes will rejoice because I am shaken. But I trusted in your steadfast love; my heart shall rejoice in your salvation. I will sing to the LORD because he has dealt bountifully with me. Psalms 13:1-6
With my whole heart I seek you; do not let me stray from your commandments. I treasure your word in my heart, so that I may not sin against you. Blessed are you, O LORD; teach me your statutes. With my lips I declare all the ordinances of your mouth. I delight in the way of your decrees as much as in all riches. I will meditate on your precepts and fix my eyes on your ways. I will delight in your statutes; I will not forget your word. Deal bountifully with your servant, so that I may live and observe your word. Open my eyes, so that I may behold wondrous things out of your law. Ilive as an alien in the land; do not hide your commandments from me. Psalms 119:10-19
Their mouths are filled with cursing and deceit and oppression; under their tongues are mischief and iniquity. They sit in ambush in the villages; in hiding places they murder the innocent. Their eyes stealthily watch for the helpless; they lurk in secret like a lion in its den; they lurk that they may seize the poor; they seize the poor and drag them off in their net. They stoop, they crouch, and the helpless fall by their might. They think in their heart, "God has forgotten; he has hidden his face; he will never see it." Rise up, O LORD; O God, lift up your hand; do not forget the oppressed. Why do the wicked renounce God and say in their hearts, "You will not call us to account"? Psalms 10:7-13

Holy God, I am tired! Tired of the fear-filled news, Tired of the cruelty toward neighbors, Tired of the deafening silence from leaders, Tired of being always on edge, Tired of screaming into the void, Tired of holding hope against despair. Meet me in my tiredness, O God. Meet me in the ache of these long days and breathe your strength into my bones. For the sake of your love. Amen. Bishop Deon K Johnson, Diocese of Missouri

St Francis looking at San Damiano valley and church it reads: As the new year dawns, may the Lord bless you with a Franciscan heart: simple in spirit, gentle in love, joyful in hope, and faithful in trust. May you walk lightly upon the earth, see Christ in the poor and forgotten — and praise God in all of creation — even in uncertainty and change.
