The last few weeks have brought more media attention to desperate people making the dangerous journey across the English Channel to seek refuge in the UK. As Christians, we are compelled to respond but we often don’t know where to start. That’s why Welcome Churches exists! We are here to equip you to follow the biblical mandate to welcome and protect the stranger.
Here are some ways you can respond today:
1. Pray
Pray for God’s justice and compassion to protect those making dangerous journeys across the world as they seek safety. Pray also for more just and compassionate immigration systems in the UK and across the world.
We are co-hosting a national prayer hour for refugees on Saturday 5th September. Click here for more information.
2. Learn
The Bible has so much to say about welcoming refugees! Sign up to our mailing list today and receive our FREE 40-day devotion to learn more.
3. Welcome

4. Donate
