Church Leader's ToolKit
Core resources to help church leaders explore and respond to immigration issues in their communities.
Become an immigration-informed church leader
Immigration issues can be complex, and it's tough to know where to find reliable information. That's why we've collected three of our most popular resources into this bundle.
In these courses you'll learn about God's heart for the immigrant and discover what the Bible has to say about immigration in Welcoming the Stranger. You'll gain insight into the refugee journey and what life is like for them in the U.S. in Intro to Resettlement. And Navigating Friendships will introduce you to some ways you can engage effectively with newcomers in your community.
