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.

Live theatre with music, outdoors

The Rev. Rita Powell (Episcopal Chaplain, Harvard) has written a play, inspired by the writing of early Christian theologian Evagrius. We Say Various Things About Sleep will be presented outdoors (in Cambridge and in Fitchburg), with live music, on August 23, 24 and 25.

How does the body experience the spiritual? Do we know our own souls? How do we encounter the divine: through music, text, movement, nature? Evagrius was transformed by his time spent in reflection in the wilderness; we seek our own miniature transformations, spending an evening together in nature and art.

Enjoy a New England summer evening with theatre and music! Please do come early and bring a picnic. (Also, bring something to sit on! If you’re joining us in Cambridge, bring a picnic blanket or a folding chair. If you’re joining us in Fitchburg, there will be stone seats – but bring padding to sit on!)

Tickets are FREE (though donations are much appreciated!)  You can find all details for We Say Various Things About Sleep at an Eventbrite page here

Please join us for a unique experience.

Ecumenical Spring Celebration – March 16, Saturday

At the request of local pastoral leaders and in faithful response to Jesus’ prayer “that all of them may be one” (John 17:21), Kinship Farm occasionally supports events where Christians throughout the North Shore and beyond can come together to share in the beauty of nature and fellowship.

Join us on Saturday, March 16! The centerpiece will be an outdoor, hour-long ecumenical Christian worship service. For an hour beforehand and afterward, participants may peacefully and contemplatively walk along woodland trails, and occasionally stop to engage with displays offered by Christians from a variety of denominations. Displays may include scripture and other text, music, art, woodworking, and other creative, interactive, youth-friendly displays about spirituality that is informed by Christ Jesus and that promotes healthy relationships and/or celebrates the natural outdoor setting.

The worship service and displays will be suitable for youth, teens, and adults and general registration is free. The event will be held in South Hamilton, MA. Displays will be staffed from 1-2 p.m. and 3-4 p.m. and the worship ceremony will run from 2-3 p.m. We regret and apologize that the trails, tents, and worship service will not be equipped with facilities or features to ensure full accessibility for individuals with mobility challenges.

To host a booth, churches will need to fill out an application form by February 26 and pay a modest commitment fee of $30. In return, on the day of the event, a basic tent and table will be set up for them and they will need to bring whatever additional materials they need to respectfully present their message. If you know of a church who might like to participate in the planning of the worship service or to host a booth, please forward this information to them.

The General Registration deadline is March 6. Click on the blue button on our website page to register. The application for displays can also be found on the same webpage.

Please direct all question, ideas, and desire about this celebration to info@kinshipfarm.org.

About our Demonstration Application and requirements:

Outdoor interactive tented booth spaces are limited and are on a first come basis. We are asking for a $30 commitment fee along with your completed ‘Display Application’ form to secure your space. The $30 commitment fee is a small contribution towards the broader expenses associated with furnishing you a tent and table.

We appreciate your cooperation with the application process and kindly ask you to submit your completed Display Application and $30 commitment fee by February 24, 2024 to reserve your tented booth space.
