Migrants ‘The LORD watches over the foreigner and sustains the fatherless and the widow, but he frustrates the ways of the wicked’ (Ps 146:9)

A unique perspective ‘…remember that…you who are Gentiles by birth…were separate from Christ, excluded from citizenship in Israel and foreigners to the covenants of the promise, without hope and without God in the world. But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ…for he himself is our peace… He came and preached peace to you who were far away and peace to those who were near. For through him we both have access to the Father by one Spirit. Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and aliens but fellow- citizens with God’s people and members of God’s household…’ Eph 2

Welcomed ‘I stand before you now The greatness of your renown I have heard of the majesty and wonder of you King of heaven, in humility I bow. As your love, in wave after wave Crashes over me, crashes over me For you are for us, you are not against us Champion of heaven You made a way for all to enter in’ (Bethel Music)
