Faith Communities as Sanctuary

This event is a public training for people of faith about how to respond to the needs of refugees, immigrants, Muslims, and vulnerable communities currently under threat. This training will provide tools and frameworks for individuals and communities discerning Sanctuary or solidarity work in the Nashville community. Participants will learn about the history and sacred roots of the Sanctuary movement, how faith communities can offer support and hospitality for people facing deportation and detention, and what’s at stake in this form of public witness.
