Did You Know?
The number one need for the U.S. immigrant and refugee population is to learn English in order to survive in America. A close second is a friend to walk alongside them as they learn. When both things happen, not only do immigrants and refugees gain a valuable skill, they have an opportunity to find Christ and experience healing.
These Friendships Look Like:
- Helping them enroll their kids in school
- Assisting them in finding housing and jobs
- Explaining to them what doctors are communicating
- Protecting them from scammers
- Connecting them with community services
The Impact
- Iglesia ACyM de Lawrence in New York had 102 students on their second week of classes. A Nicaraguan family from their ESL class began attending their church within a month!
- CrossPoint Alliance Church in Akron, Ohio, a church of 75 people, has seen over 1,000 students from 61 nations in the past 10 years! The program was led by 163 volunteers from 37 churches.
- Iglesia ACyM de Manassas in Virginia held a workshop with five Hispanic churches in 2022. Five of those students recently gave their life to Christ, and one was baptized!
