What We Believe - We Welcome

  • We are called to treat and talk about immigrants and refugees with love and care as people made in the image of God.  

  • We believe in creating a culture of welcome toward our immigrant and refugee neighbors, guided by our faith and biblical principles of hospitality and compassion.  

  • Practicing compassion and hospitality does not mean we are advocates for illegal immigration or open border policies. Rather, we seek to advocate for the humane treatment of those coming to our country while amending our immigration policies to create more effective and safe ways for immigration to the U.S. 

  • We believe in safe and secure borders, thorough vetting, and the dignified treatment of these vulnerable populations.

  • We believe in cultivating spaces where women grow together to be encouraged, educated, and equipped to serve, advocate, and engage in respectful dialogue with their own communities and others as they seek to create more welcoming spaces for their immigrant and refugee neighbors.  

  • We need bipartisan legislative solutions on immigration that uphold human dignity and support the interests of the American people. Our nation’s immigration laws should: 

    • Respect the rule of law.  

    • Protect the unity of the immediate family. 

    • Commit to safety and security on the border and in our communities. 

    • Show compassion to immigrants by allowing them an opportunity to earn lawful status and citizenship. 

    • Provide migrants the opportunity to lawfully contribute to our economy
