Featured Resources Available Through Churches of Welcome
A host of resources are available to members and non-members. Here are some of our favorites.
No Longer Strangers: Small Group Curriculum
Explore how evangelism can become a transformative journey of mutual growth and connection with immigrant communities. Based on the book No Longer Strangers: Transforming Evangelism with Immigrant Communities, this course combines engaging video sessions with the authors, thought-provoking reflection prompts, and practical action steps.
Stand with Immigrants: Practical Tools for Rights & Readiness
Immigrant families are facing heightened fear and the risk of separation — but your church is ready to stand with them in this time of uncertainty. The Stand with Immigrants toolkit equips you to support immigrants by helping them understand their rights, access trustworthy legal resources, and by bringing the community together.
The Refugee Journey
If you would like to learn more or get involved with helping refugee newcomers in your neighborhood, but don't know where to begin, this course is for you! You will journey through the global context of refugee resettlement and then move into the process of resettlement within the United States. Throughout the course, you will hear a firsthand experience of what resettlement in the United States is like.
What Church Leaders Are Saying
Churches of Welcome gives us the opportunity to do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with an often overlooked group of people that are clearly close to the heart of the Father - refugees. I am thankful for the work of World Relief and look forward to partnering with them in this important work.
The Churches of Welcome initiative gives our U.S. Alliance family a wonderful opportunity to show God's love to families often overlooked and underserved. I encourage everyone to partner with World Relief in this ministry to serve and reach as many as possible.
Our church had the incredible privilege of partnering with Churches of Welcome to help resettle a refugee family from Colombia. The most beautiful part has been watching their three children build friendships with the kids in our church—playing together, learning together, and showing us all what true hospitality looks like. Through Churches of Welcome...we are building a family of faith that knows no borders.
As a mission pastor, I've never had a team more excited about engaging in ministry as they are with our Good Neighbor Team. The enthusiasm has been contagious, and now other church members beyond the team have been volunteering with the team and with refugee focused ministries in the area!
