Immigration Action Team
Midvale's Immigration Action Team engages in education on the immigration crisis in the United States and supports refugees, immigrants and asylum seekers in our area. They are partners with the Dane Sanctuary Coalition in our local area for this ministry.
In January of 2024 and January of 2025, Pastor Katie lead a group from Midvale on a service learning trip to the U.S.-Mexico border through Border Servant Corps.
Other helpful resources and ways you can help with the immigration issues are available through the ELCA's AMMPARO ministry and Lutheran Immigration and Refuge Service (LIRS).
