Kingswood United Methodist Church and the Northern Illinois Conference Advocacy Partners Immigration Committee invites all to a gathering intended to clarify the facts about immigration and propose a theological grounding of our call to action as Methodists.

A panel of speakers will address what Scripture says about boundaries and foreigners, immigration facts vs. misconceptions, NIC organizations that support immigrants, and what we can do as individuals and congregations to support immigrants and immigrant communities.
