In this video recorded for the Nebraska Region’s DWM October 2025 Event “All God’s Children: A Christian Response to Immigration” Rev. Brian Frederick-Gray (Director for Justice & Advocacy Ministries @ Disciples Home Missions) and Rev. Grace Kozak (Associate Director for Immigrant and Refugee Response @ Week of Compassion) discuss important issues about the refugee and immigration systems in the United States.
While the video was recorded for a specific event, the content is timely and relevant and so it is being made available for wider distribution/use.
In the video Grace and Brian define key terms (immigrant, refugee, asylum seeker), discuss the important distinctions between criminal charges and civil charges, and offer reflections on why it is important for the church to offer prophetic words and actions at this moment.
