Ecumenical Advocacy Days

And Jesus said to him, 'Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head.' (Luke 9:58)

A Place to Call Home:
Immigrants, Refugees and Displaced Peoples
Jesus had no place to lay his head. Neither do tens of millions of migrants, refugees and displaced persons. Be a part of an action weekend addressing this global injustice. Join hundreds of faith-based advocates in taking action on legislation that will welcome immigrants, protect refugees, and prevent displacement for millions.
 
Worship, study and dialogue with hundreds of people of faith at the annual Ecumenical Advocacy Days. Then join us as we go to Capitol Hill to advocate for our members of Congress to remedy this global injustice. The 2010 conference will be held March 19–22 at the DoubleTree Hotel in Crystal City, Virginia, just outside of Washington, D.C.

Bring a friend! We encourage groups from churches, denominations and regional councils of churches to charter buses and bring large groups to this important faith-in-action event.

Let mutual love continue. Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for by doing that some have entertained angels without knowing it. (Hebrews 13:1-2)
