We are deeply grateful for his passion and unwavering commitment to justice for immigrants, workers, and all communities that have been historically marginalized. Father Estrada’s life was defined by his profound kindness, selfless service, and steadfast dedication to those in greatest need. Thank you. 🤍 🕯️🪽
