01 Jul 2018—Jesus, Mary, and Joseph Were Asylum Seekers

Thousands of asylum-seeking children have been forcibly separated from their parents at the border, a policy rooted in Scripture, according to our nation’s Attorney General.

Without the kindness of strangers and the welcome of the Egyptians, we would have no Jesus. It’s time this story were better known.  Learn more about Blue Ocean Faith, including service times and locations, at a2blue.org.
