"Immigration, the Church, and the Bible"
A day-long workshop for clergy and lay leaders
Friday, March 11, 2011
9:00 am to 4:00 pm
Wesley United Methodist Church
114 Main St. Worcester, MA
Presenter: Professor M. Daniel Carroll R., Distinguished Professor of Old Testament at Denver Seminary, Author of Christians at the Border: Immigration, the Church, and the Bible
Cost of registration: $20 includes lunch and a copy of Strangers in the Land, the 6-week devotional guide on immigration from the editors of Sojourners. Scholarships are available.
Why attend? You can help shift the conversation about immigration reform. We need to know what our Bible says about this contentious topic. We believe that local congregations can be centers of respectful, honest, biblically-grounded conversation about hard issues. Like most hard choices, there is no room for cheap grace; there is a path to costly discipleship. This workshop and the resources that follow can help.
A flyer with registration form is available at nhchurches.org/files/Immigration Workshop Brochure.pdf Please share this with your networks*. Send a team from your church. We encourage Pastor and lay leaders to come together. All participating congregations will be acknowledged in the workshop materials.
Please feel free to contact us with any questions- 603-224-1352 or

DREAM Fails to Pass Senate Filibuster
Scott Brown helps crush hopes of innocent youth
|
|
BOSTON -- The Senate failed today to overcome a filibuster against the DREAM Act, which would have allowed undocumented immigrant youth to enter a pathway to legalization by attending college or serving in the military. To end a filibuster, 60 votes are needed, and the vote was 55 to 41. Massachusetts' senators split their votes, with John Kerry (Dem.) voting yes and Scott Brown (Rep.) voting no.

Dream Act Legislation - Action Alert |

|
The purpose of the Development, Relief and Education of Alien Minors Act, also called the DREAM Act, is to help those individuals who meet certain requirements, have an opportunity to enlist in the military or go to college and have a path to citizenship which they otherwise would not have without this legislation. Supporters of the DREAM Act believe it is vital not only to the people who would benefit from it, but also the United States as a whole. It would give an opportunity to undocumented immigrant students who have been living in the U.S. since they were young, a chance to contribute back to the country that has given so much to them and a chance to utilize their hard earned education and talents. Click here for more information regarding this act.
