Immigration

One of the most exciting and significant ministries to recently take place in the Church is in the area of immigration ministry. There are immigrants in cities all over the United States who have encountered much confusion and hardship because they have lacked the information, understanding, and relationships necessary to obtain legal status and citizenship.

Over the last few years, the office of Mission Stratgey, USA/Canada, in cooperation with World Relief, has sponsored several immigration ministry conferences all across the United States. These seminars provide a general overview of immigration law, including recent changes that will affect immigrants. For information on how to sponsor a seminar or on upcoming events, please contact our office: Mission Strategy USA/Canada, 6401 The Paseo, Kansas City, MO 64131, or call toll free at (800) 738-7167 or e-mail us.
