Keep in mind that what the church is asking for is to allow those members to do VOLUNTEER work for the church. The church strongly encourages service as part of a Christian lifestyle.

How is that any different from the "Americans don't want to pick cabbage" argument?

Except, of course, that illegal cabbage pickers earn 10 cents an hour and these volunteers wouldn't?

I would hope they also encourage obeying laws as part of a Christian lifestyle. If that is what they claim, then they shouldn't be encouraging illegal aliens to remain in this country illegally.
