By proposing a concept based both on justice and on compassion, evangelical immigration activists resurrected the biblical teachings to care for the “stranger” and reshaped the theology of hospitality in order to meet evangelical concerns about the rule of law. The chapter highlights the crucial role that Latinx evangelical leaders played in placing immigration on the evangelical agenda. They were joined by evangelical leaders who brought a renewed focus on social justice into their organizations. They came together in the Evangelical Immigration Table, a group founded in 2012, which hoped to change both evangelical immigration attitudes and immigration policy at the national level. The results of their activism are mixed: while surveys showed increasing evangelical support for immigration reform that includes a pathway to citizenship, this support failed to translate into electoral choices.","PeriodicalId":160848,"journal":{"name":"The Strangers in Our Midst","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131374574","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

During this time, a number of evangelical organizations ran resettlement ministries and refugee service programs. This chapter describes the professionalization of evangelical refugee resettlement, including the founding of the first evangelical resettlement agency, World Relief Refugee Services. Evangelical volunteers and former missionaries to Vietnam played a significant role in running recreational and educational activities in the refugee resettlement camps in the mid-1970s. These “missionaries without a country” became an important resource for the Immigration and Naturalization Service, which relied on their interpreting and translating services. By differentiating between mainstream evangelical and progressive evangelical responses to the government’s appeal for evangelical sponsors, this chapter shows that evangelicals’ political stances on the US involvement in Vietnam fundamentally shaped their response to the refugees.","PeriodicalId":160848,"journal":{"name":"The Strangers in Our Midst","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131023695","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It explores diverging attitudes and responses to the 2015 refugee crisis as well as to the travel ban and the separation of families at the southern US border in the first years of the Trump presidency. Applying the book’s argument that politics has shaped evangelicals’ theology in their views on immigration, these divisions on immigration are placed in the context of other issues that have produced cracks in the evangelical movement, such as gun control or LGBTQ rights.","PeriodicalId":160848,"journal":{"name":"The Strangers in Our Midst","volume":"254 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116209860","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
