Where is it Written - God and Immigration

God has something to say on today’s topics. Let's be people whose values are shaped by God's Word more than by the culture around us.

Where Is It Written?
Read Deuteronomy 10:19, Leviticus 19:34, Leviticus 27:19 and Matthew 25:35-40.
What do these passages teach us about the importance of caring for immigrants?

Read Exodus 12:49, Leviticus 24:22, Numbers 15:14-16, Romans 13:1-7.
What do these passages teach us about the legal rights and responsibilities of immigrants?

How Goes Your Walk?
All of us have an immigration story. What is yours?
(When did your family immigrate? How did they get established?)
How do public safety and economic sustainability factor into how we care for immigrants?
What are some practical ways we can care for immigrants?
What is your next step towards caring for immigrants?
