The
Episcopal Church will present a 90 minute webinar on October 15
focusing on the global refugee crisis, U.S. resettlement and how
Episcopalians can be involved in this ministry of welcome. Presented by Episcopal Migration Ministries and Episcopal Public Policy Network, the live webinar will begin at 8 pm Eastern.
For
more than 75 years, The Episcopal Church has welcomed refugees to the
United States, helping them find safety, security and new lives as
American citizens. Now, with at least 60 million people displaced from
their homes and lives, the global community is facing the largest
refugee crisis since the end of World War II.
"Episcopalians
from across the church have been reaching out to us on a daily basis
asking how they can be involved in mission and advocacy that supports
refugees," Deborah Stein, Episcopal Migration Ministries Director. "We
hope that this webinar will inspire individuals, congregations, and
dioceses to engage this life-saving work in new ways."
Pre-registration is required. Register for the webinar here. The webinar will be available on-demand following the event. Click here for more information.
