Journey For Justice Dec 14th, Day 14: Ajo and "The Barn"

We are warmly welcomed once again at “The Barn” just outside the main drag thru the small town of Ajo. And once again we are well fed, this time not only with salads, soups, fajitas but homemade DESERTS! YEAH!

I’m shocked to realize that this little barn is where refugees were sheltered while they healed from their arduous , dangerous journey that almost cost them their lives.

And where hero humanitarian Scott Warren was accused of harboring two undocumented individuals, breaking the law by giving them food and water, providing medical care, and by not turning them in to border patrol.

When I read about Scott’s case I thought the shelter he was providing was in so desolate, remote, isolated part of the desert and not within feet of neighbors and a small town.

He was finally aquitted but he never should have been arrested, charged, and prosecuted in the first place.

I was hoping he was going to be here tonight but no such good fortune. We did meet other volunteers and humanitarian aid workers – a very special evening.

We end the night with gazing into flames and lifting our eyes to the incredible desert sky!
