Fireside chat with Rev. Dr. Richard Rouse, author of “A Journey Called Hope” (Chalice Press)
May 20, 2025 @ 7:00 pm
If you’ve ever wondered how your church, book club, or small group can better understand and support refugees and immigrants, you’re not alone. That’s why we’re inviting you to a special online event hosted by Global Refuge, a partner of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA).
Join Rev. Eric Shafer (Global Refuge pastor in residence) and Rev. Dr. Richard Rouse (author of the Chalice Press book A Journey Called Hope) for a powerful conversation about the real-life journeys of new Americans seeking safety and a fresh start. You’ll hear inspiring stories, gain insights from the book, and have a chance to ask your own questions.
Whether you’re looking to educate, inspire, or take action in your community, A Journey Called Hope is the perfect resource to get started.
When: Tuesday, May 20, 7pm EDT/4pm PT
Reserve your spot today—and take the next step toward compassion and understanding.
