• Understand the biblical basis and mandate for loving the sojourner in their midst;

• Recognize immigrants in their own community;

• Identify “bridge members” in their church that are key to befriending and welcoming immigrants; and

• Become familiar with some simple yet effective ways for engaging immigrants in their community.
