Engaging and Experiencing the Immigrant World
Saturday, April 16, 2011
in 2011, we provided opportunity for students and staff of Denver Seminary to serve the community with practical engagement and hands-on experience. Groups of students were deployed for a period 2-3 hours to participate in ministries or agencies along the Front Range area which are dealing with different aspects of the immigration issue. Participating ministries/agencies included:
Denver Rescue Mission - Participate in the multi-faceted work to serve the inner city and the needs of refugees
Tha Myx International - International BBQ, Drummer performance and dance group Koffi Toudji, activites for kids and adults.
North Littleton Promise - Working with kids and their families: There will be some Spanish speaking folks there to engage any parents who come.
Sweet Dream in a Bag - We will be having a "Pack & Pray" event that day at Bethany E-Free Church, on Caley & Broadway. We serve a light lunch and this is the time we fold and pack each of the beautiful bedding bags for the children and pray for each of the children who will receive the bedding.
