Jeremiah 29:4-7 and Immigrant Ministry

Abstract

In the United States, the debate of immigration policy and the call for immigrant reform appear like clockwork during this presidential election year of 2008. Throw in the legal status of the immigrants, and it is not surprised to see so multiple options before offered on the topic. This article attempts to discover the contemporary significance of the passage Jeremiah 29:4-7, in particular, verses 4-7, in relation to immigrant ministry.
