On Tuesday, March 28 at 2:00PM EST, the EIT will be hosting a one-hour Lifelong learning opportunity called: The Pastor as Advocate: Caring for Our Immigrant Neighbors.(https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZUqf-6qpzsvGtJ-GWjmvpHPAKvOh8xrzBSO?fbclid=IwAR3qJ2XD-DYv5UsJn9Z7DlXqcbINF3CRL9uvQaEZm2gCPn0KZkE-Hc4PSew)

We hope you will register for this virtual training/discipling opportunity that’s been designed with you in mind.“Our national immigration laws have created a moral, economic and political crisis in America. Initiatives to remedy this crisis have led to polarization and name calling in which opponents have misrepresented each other’s positions as open borders and amnesty versus deportations of millions. This false choice has led to an unacceptable political stalemate at the federal level at a tragic human cost. We urge our nation’s leaders to work together with the American people to pass immigration reform that embodies these key principles and that will make our nation proud. As evangelical Christian leaders, we call for a bipartisan solution on immigration that:Respects the God-given dignity of every person
Protects the unity of the immediate family
Respects the rule of law
Guarantees secure national borders
Ensures fairness to taxpayers
Establishes a path toward legal status and/or citizenship for those who qualify and who wish to become permanent residents.”

Thank you for being willing to explore with us what it means to become better advocates for our immigrant sisters and brothers – for our neighbors.
