About this Event

The Southern Border Experience is an invitation to listen, learn, and reflect on what the border can teach us, who we are meant to become, and how we can engage closer to home. This is not border tourism. Through a border encounter, we want to hear differently as we connect across divides. We desire to sit with our neighbors, stand with one voice, and walk with those who sojourn over many miles in search of refuge, safety, and wholeness.

We will be partnering with Abara for this 3-day experience in El Paso, Texas. Our group will hear from a wide spectrum of voices with a high emphasis on justice, peace, healing, and transformation through narrative, systems, and personal change. We choose to enter this space as guests, both in El Paso and its sister city, Juarez, Mexico. Through Abara’s leadership, we will center the hopes, dreams, and concerns of neighbors who are local experts within their own communities. 

Programming Includes:

  • Effects of Colonization on the Region
  • History of the Border
  • Causes of Migration
  • Immigration 101
  • Theology of Migration
  • Concerns over Rhetoric
  • Impact of U.S. Policy on Citizens of Juarez
  • The Role of the Church in Immigration


The Cost Per Person Is $600. This does NOT include airfare, transportation to/from the airport, and lodging in El Paso.

The cost includes:

  • All programming and guided tours
  • Transportation while in El Paso and Juarez
  • All Meals and Snacks are Included


Space is limited. Register today.
