Noah has a conversation with Pastor Dale Dalman on his visits to North Lake Processing Center in Baldwin, MI, the Midwest’s largest immigrant detention center. Dale shares as a pastor from a biblical, non-partisan perspective on what’s happening with ICE, immigrant arrests, what our laws are and how they’re used, and the process immigrants go through at detention centers.
Dale Dalman is a retired missionary and pastor with the Evangelical Covenant Church denomination. He served as a missionary to Venezuela and senior pastor to a Hispanic church in Michigan. He currently serves with the Clergy on Patrol program with the Grand Rapids Police Department and is Mayor Pro Tem of the city of Rockford, MI. He’s been married to his wife Sheryl for 43 years and has 3 married children and 7 grandchildren. He has a bachelor’s degree from Moody Bible Institute and a master’s degree from Calvin Theological Seminary.
