Welcoming the Stranger in an Unwelcoming World: Immigrants, Refugees, and Religion in Modern America
Dr. Melissa Borja and Ms. Sofia Ortiz
Is it possible to fulfill the biblical mandate to “welcome the stranger” while also supporting responsible policies on immigration? What do religiously-informed refugee support practices look like? This timely event will feature insights from a scholar of U.S. refugee resettlement policy, reflections from a Christian social worker involved in local refugee support, and ample audience participation.
