Launch of Immigrants Are a Blessing Not a Burden Campaign

Have you heard about our new Immigrants Are a Blessing Not a Burden campaign?

The campaign a new movement of Christians who are trying to change the conversation about immigrants from one that portrays immigrants as burdens to one that tells the truth about the blessing they are to our churches, communities, and the economy. We are asking people tosign the pledge, wear a t-shirt or tote bag, and share the message on social media. Visitwww.BlessingNotBurden.org to begin changing the conversation!

Spread the Message

We need your voice! Are you committed to the message that immigrants are a blessing, not a burden? Do you want to have an active role in changing the conversation? Become a social media ambassador for the ‪#BlessingNotBurden campaign! Anti-immigrant rhetoric is too prevalent on social media. Together we can change this conversation on social media and educate others on the blessings that immigrants are to our communities. To join or learn more,click here.
