The 2023 Bishop’s Appeal was dedicated to assisting migrants/refugees in our communities, especially after the increased number of migrants from different places that were bussed from other states. The amount received has been given to 17 churches and organizations through a grant process, and now it's time to celebrate and hear about how the 2023 Bishop's Appeal has positively impacted the lives of migrants in your community.

Sponsored by Refugee & Migrants Ministries (Conference Board of Global Ministries).
