This Month’s Highlight

Working Mission

Join The Experience this month as we highlight Working Mission. We desire to build relationships between our congregants and local immigrants who need a strong community. Help us fulfill the Great Commission here in our own backyard as we show God’s love to all people! 

Working Mission is a nonprofit based outside of Nashville, Tennessee, that works with immigrants. They have a three-fold mission to:

• Create Meaningful Connections
• Alleviate Food Insecurities
• Shape Brighter Futures

Working Mission exists to develop a sustainable foundation for international communities, equipping them through intentional relationships, agricultural programs, and language and job development. They do this through:

• Providing classes such as: Conversational English, English as Second Language Classes, Citizenship Preparation, and Driver’s Ed Preparation
• Fighting Food Insecurities: Community Gardens, Chickens for Eggs and Meat Program, and Lamb Program
• Newest Initiative: Family Mentorship Program

You can help—This is a fantastic way to be a part of Missions in your own backyard! Here are ways to get involved!!

1. Be a part of our Family Mentorship Program. Commit (as a family, an individual, or as a Life Group) to spend time with immigrant families at Working Mission for one year; invite them into your groups, your homes, help them as needed, spend time with them during the holidays, and more.
2. Conversational English Classes: Help them practice/strengthen their English skills simply by attending the classes and being someone they can practice speaking with.
3. Sponsor an immigrant/student to go through the Working Mission English Class. It is just $100 per person for the entire year to take a course that can change their lives! 

If you want to get involved in any of these ways or want to learn more, plan to attend one of our INTEREST MEETINGS:
