What does the Bible say about immigrants & refugees?
Here’s a few amazing women to tell you.
#Immigration
#RefugeesWelcome
#evangelicals
#WomenofWelcome
Watching American Christians claim they care about the persecuted Church while hearing them vehemently refute and outright dismiss the painful stories of Christians (and their young children) being unjustly detained and oppressed here in the U.S. is absolutely wiiiiiild.
I do not believe Jesus died for us
so that we could live comfortable lives behind walls,
indifferent to the suffering of others.
-Tim Breene

My own daughter is 12.
She is a CHILD.
Calling children anything other than children in these cases is an attempt to downplay the vulnerability of the victim and soften the evil and grotesqueness of the abuse.
She was a CHILD.
To clarify, this wasn’t an email sent to @GatewayPeople members. This was internal staff communication posted to about 900 staff members yesterday at 4 pm. I’m not aware of any communication to members yet about @PsRobertMorris admission of abusing Cindy. watchkeep.org/2024/06/a-surv…
This whole 🧵 has me 😭.
Humans are amazing.
The strength of immigrants is incredible.
This is my mom.
She was an asylum seeker.
She slept in a church b/c she had nowhere else to go.
She is a housekeeper & a waitress.
She is my hero.
These degrees are for her.

You made history happen, mom.

Conservative Evangelical Women Take the Gospel to the Border: 'We Lay Hands on Them' www2.cbn.com/news/us/conserv…
Out today, a profile on evangelical women who want to hold the tension of safe & secure borders AND compassionate treatment for those approaching the border.
Could evangelical Christian women hold the key to compromise on immigration reform?
usatoday.com/story/news/poli…
"According to a recent national poll, 86% of registered voters said they would reward candidates who work across the aisle on immigration reform, seeking solutions to restore order at the border and support those already contributing to our economy."
OPINION: Restricting access to asylum shouldn't be part of serious immigration reform.

A few things:
The situation IS untenable.
Congress is the only entity that can provide long-term solutions.
We shouldn't be calling ppl illegal.
The data says the VAST majority of ppl are presenting TO authorities.
Our monthly #s are historic, but not that of WY.
Call your rep.
I told @RNS I’m confident Christian women are changing the conversation about immigration. It’s a quiet undercurrent that revisits scripture&biblical hospitality instead of ranting partisan narratives online.
Look closer, evangelical women are there,having the hard conversation
Women of Welcome, a partnership between World Relief and the National Immigration Forum, is helping evangelical women understand what Scripture says about God's heart for the immigrant and refugee.

Migration and Human Trafficking are inextricably linked.
We have an international humanitarian crisis at our southern border and the cartels continue to profit from our broken immigration system.

If you could, please pray for my friend @KellyMRosati , this has been an extremely exhausting year for her and her family. Today marks another sad day that we never wanted to come.
This my first horse, my beloved old man, Tovarish. I love him so much. He was a gift from God beyond description.
He is nearing the end.
Wednesday he’ll cross the rainbow bridge. I have bouts of being v. v. sad. But he’s 26 & deteriorating quickly & I won’t let him suffer.

The cheers. Just disgusting.
It’s pretty basic:
-Seeking asylum is legal
-If you’re pro-life, you care about the conditions and flourishing of children, regardless of their citizenship or circumstances.
-Applauding the traumatic practice of separating families is evil.
I’m among the two-thirds of Americans who support a solution that allows Dreamers to stay and eventually earn citizenship.@RepDLamborn @SenatorHick @SenatorBennet as your constituent, I am asking that you to work toward a legislative solution for Dreamers. #Dreamers #HeretoStay
