Throughout scripture, we see that God deeply cares about welcoming the stranger, the refugee, and the foreigner. Yet how do we extend that welcome to the neighbors around us, amidst the busyness of parenting and the weight of distressing headlines? This week’s prayer was written by Laura Hornby, a community liaison for We Welcome, a Christian group that provides educational resources, bipartisan action tools, and a supportive community for those seeking to take the next step in their advocacy for immigrants and refugees. Pray with us for a humble, generous, and curious spirit, so that we may choose welcome over self-preservation.   Learn more about We Welcome and their work by checking out their website and following them on Instagram.   Kayla’s newest book, Every Season Sacred, is out now!
