Welcoming the Stranger (Theme for May 24 - Heritage Sunday)

from UMC Discipleship dot-org:
 The theme for Heritage Sunday in 2015 as set by the General Commission on Archives and History is “Welcoming the Stranger.”  The theme will highlight the work of those who welcomed the immigrant such as Alma Matthews and Kathryn Maurer as well as immigration responses that are not U.S.-centric.  The "Welcoming the Stranger" theme includes the role hospitals, homes, orphanages, the poor, the outcast, education, etc., has played in the history of The United Methodist Church.
