The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself. Leviticus 19:34 NIV
Welcomers International Association
Welcomers International consists of followers of Jesus who strive to provide international students and immigrants with opportunities to meet American friends, spend time in American homes, practice speaking English, and become connected to the Tulsa community. Activities include:
English Club
Volunteer hosts open up their homes once a week to provide warm hospitality and a consistent time and place to cultivate relationships and for English practice. The night features food, games, and conversation – and thereby cultivates deeper relationships.
Ladie's Nights
Many women from non-Western cultural traditions enjoy the opportunity to mingle and interact with other women from diverse backgrounds.
Men's Activities
International men can interact with men from the local community through sports, miniature golf, and other activities.
Cultural Events
Activities such as a Thanksgiving Dinner, a Christmas party, and an Easter party, among other fun events offer people from many different nations a chance to learn the story and customs behind holidays, practice conversation, and just have fun.
