INTERNATIONAL & REFUGEEs 

I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me.

Matthew 25:35

We have several opportunities to minister to international and refugee families who have been placed right outside our doors here in South Tulsa. Through our partnership with Jenks and Bixby Public Schools, our English as Second Language (ESL) classes as South Tulsa, our Discover the Story class, the RiSE sewing ministry, and in many other ways we are connected to these families on a weekly basis.

CITIZENSHIP CLASS
The citizenship class is open to individuals who are preparing to file for and interview for US Citizenship. The class is designed to equip and prepare students for the citizenship interview and acquaint them with the qualifications and requirements for filing the N-400 Application for Naturalization. The curriculum is designed for intermediate level English speakers because the ability to speak and write English are requisite components of the citizenship exam. So, the ability to read and speak English on at least an intermediate level is encouraged before registering for the class. The class is led by a licensed immigration attorney who is familiar with the process and requirements of becoming a US Citizen.
