Cru City Intls/Immigs/Refugees

#1222000

Immigrants, internationals, and refugees (IIR) are our neighbors. They may be refugees who have experienced significant trauma in their journey to our country. Others have immigrated to join family members or to find a safer and a more economically viable life. Some are here working in international business.

Did you know that one in seven US residents is foreign-born? This number doesn't even include the children of immigrants, internationals, and refugees who reside here. The US has a larger immigrant population than any other country and it comprises 14.4% of our population. Many come from countries closed to the gospel and yet, here in the US we have freedom to reach them. They are contributing to a revitalization of the church in America.

The ministry of IIR seeks to love this population in a variety of different ways:

  • Training volunteers in culturally effective ministry.
  • Mobilizing communities to engage with their new neighbors.
  • Facilitating IIR groups on topics such as trauma, family life and English conversation.
  • Helping newly arrived families through the transition to the US and meeting basic needs.
  • Simply being a friend.
  • Guiding families and individuals the Finding Home Again curriculum
