Prayer Initiative
Thoughts on Legal Immigration
Do not deprive the foreigner or the fatherless of justice. Deuteronomy 24:17
As a country who believes You created all men equal, we pray for Your guidance and wisdom in how we treat those who would want to become American citizens. Guide our leaders to honorable and wise immigration policies that secure the safety of America.
As a nation built by immigrants, we pray for Your protection and direction for the newest immigrants to our country.
We pray that our legal immigrants will be a part of restoring America to You, instead of part of the effort to transform America away from our founders’ intent and vision.

“We need every honest and efficient immigrant fitted to become an American citizen, every immigrant who comes here to stay, who brings here a strong body, a stout heart, a good head, and a resolute purpose, to do his duty well in every way and to bring up his children as law-abiding and God-fearing members of the American community.” President Theodore Roosevelt – December 3, 1901
