“Like many of you, I have been wondering what we as faith communities can do to address concerns about deportation and how to best care for and support the immigrants in our community,” the Rev. Benjamin Shambaugh of St. Luke’s Episcopal Church wrote in a recent letter to fellow clergy and community leaders.

To help answer that question, the church has invited people from all faiths to a presentation on Wednesday by Minerva Perez, the executive director of Organizacion Latino-Americana.

East Hampton Village Mayor Jerry Larsen and Sara Smith, the East Hampton High School principal, are expected to be in attendance. The meeting will run from 4 to 6 p.m. The church has asked those who plan to attend to R.S.V.P. to 631-329-0990.
