Anti-ICE protests disrupt church services in Minneapolis and St. Paul, escalating tensions.
This is a breaking story, so the information is a bit mixed. There are reports of church services in both Minneapolis and Saint Paul being disrupted by anti-ICE protesters, but I suspect that the reports are all about the same disruption, naming the two different cities.
With that caveat, there is no doubt that the services at at least one church were disrupted by anti-ICE protesters storming the service to drown out the pastor who, they claim, is associated with ICE.

Don Lemon live-streamed (one of?) the invasions, comparing the protest to those of the 1960s. I’m not sure that a sit-in at a Woolworth’s is quite the same thing as this, but perhaps there were similar protests about which I am unaware.
This is disgusting.
Radical protesters enter an evangelical church (Cities Church, St. Paul, MN) and disrupt a worship service to protest an ICE agent who is a pastor there.
Absolutely despicable. pic.twitter.com/i42NoozcCq— Denny Burk (@DennyBurk) January 18, 2026
Presumably, the protest was planned some time ago, if Don Lemon was tipped off about the protesters storming the church. Apparently, if Don Lemon is to be believed (not a sure bet, of course), more such protests are to be expected.
