Julita Bartolome was deported during a wave of immigration crackdowns by the Trump administration. More than three years later, she's back home in Mount Prospect -- for good this time, according to Katherine Del Rosario, the family's lawyer.
On a recent Sunday morning, Edgardo Bartolome stood in the pulpit at Filipino Immanuel Baptist Church of Chicago on the Northwest Side. The 68-year-old pastor began singing an old worship song: As he sang, his 69-year-old wife Julita Bartolome, who in 2019 was deported to her native Philippines after more than 30 years in the United States, emerged from a door behind the pulpit.
Aaron Bartolome was at a different church that morning but later saw a video recording and said:"It was a nice reunion for the people at the church. They really missed her." In 2019, WBEZ first reported that Julita Bartolome was deported during a wave of immigration crackdowns by the Trump administration.
More than three years later, she's back home in Mount Prospect -- for good this time, according to Katherine Del Rosario, the family's lawyer.
