United Voices for Children Recognize NIC Child Advocates

As we continue to look for ways to support international students, the Immigration Team of the NIC Conference Commission on Religion and Race has been presented with an urgent need.
We have been made aware that are some international students at Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary in Evanston who are unable to travel back home this summer. They fear they will not be able to return to the country after the summer break is over. As you can imagine, these students need support in many ways.
We are launching an effort to meet immediate needs with the help of our congregations. We will be collecting $25 Jewel and Walmart gift cards as well as monetary donations.
How You Can Help:
This initiative aims to address the current needs of these students, and we are asking all of our congregations to help wrap these brothers and sisters in the warmth of our Christian Love.
If you have questions or are looking for more information, please contact Lisa Rogers.
