Call for Papers: The Church as Sanctuary: Reimagining the Future of an Ancient Tradition

What is the meaning of sanctuary over the next four years? With the removal of the “sensitive locations” policy, the growing resistance towards sanctuary cities, and increased rhetoric on mass deportations, what does it mean to reimagine sanctuary for today? This conference seeks to explore how religious communities are responding to the political and humanitarian crisis facing (im)migrants in our modern world, and the lessons to be learned from this ancient tradition.

This conference is open to graduate students who are interested in contributing to the growing field of Christianity and migration studies. Disciplinary approaches can include Bible, theology, ethics, history, philosophy, missiology, and social scientific approaches to the study of Christianity & migration.

Paper topics can include, but are not limited to:

  • Sanctuary Cities
  • Law & Public Policy
  • Early & Medieval Christianity
  • Christian Nationalism & Immigration
  • Historical & Contemporary Case Studies
  • The Sanctuary & New Sanctuary Movement

Abstract Submission Deadline (250 words): May 30, 2025

Acceptance Notification Date: July 15, 2025

Email submissions to Renzo Meza at MygrationChristianConference@gmail.com. Please include your name, institution, year, and degree program.

Easter Service in German Language

Our festive services in German takes place at noon, also at 77 Columbia St. We will sing traditional classical like, “Christ ist erstanden” and celebrate the resurrection of our Lord through the cultural idiom of German Lutheranism. There is a bilingual Children’s Church available for the little ones, so that they get to have fun as well and encounter the story of Easter on their level, with playful actives and crafts and lots of movement and laughter! Between the English at 10:00 am and German service at 12:00 pm, we will also have an Easter egg hunt for the little ones (about 20 minutes). Make sure you don’t miss it!
