Radical Living, in partnership with Justice for our Neighbors, the New Sanctuary Movement, and John Wesley United Methodist Church, is proud to present The Theology of Immigration: God Immigrants and Activism, a gathering where clergy and layperson, immigrant and native-born will join one another in an effort to shed our cultural biases in order to discover what the Bible actually says about immigration.

Time: 6 p.m. to 10 p.m.

Location: John Wesley United Methodist Church, 260 Quincy Street, Brooklyn, NY (exit the A/C train at Nostrand Avenue)

Speakers: Reverend Gabriel Salguero, Director of the Hispanic Leadership Program at Princeton Theological Seminary, Juan Carlos Ruiz, community organizer for the New Sanctuary Movement, and Naomi Madsen, program manager of immigrant and refugee ministries at UMCOR.
