Episcopal Migration Ministries Offers a New Resource: Supporting Asylum Seekers: A Toolkit for Congregations

Episcopal Migration Ministries (EMM) is offering a new resource for individuals and congregations who wish to welcome and support asylum seekers. Supporting Asylum Seekers: A Toolkit for Congregations is a free resource designed for congregations interested in supporting people seeking asylum.

“Welcoming our neighbors as we would welcome Christ is not a political issue; it is an issue of our identity as followers of Jesus, as members of the Episcopal branch of the Jesus movement, and as people who made promises at our baptisms,” said Allison Duvall, manager for church relations and engagement for EMM.

The toolkit will be updated as new resources, case studies, and information become available.
