Mygration Christian Conference (MCC) is excited to be hosting its 2nd Graduate Student Conference (GSC) on October 17-18, 2025 at Gordon College in Wenham, MA!

This year’s conference theme is “The Church as Sanctuary: Reimagining the Future of an Ancient Tradition.”  With the removal of the “sensitive locations” policy, the growing resistance towards sanctuary cities, and increased rhetoric on mass deportations, what does it mean to reimagine sanctuary for today? This year’s conference seeks to explore how religious communities are responding to the political and humanitarian crisis facing (im)migrants in our modern world, and the lessons to be learned from this ancient tradition.

This GSC is open to all MCC attendees, and all GSC presenters will attend our main Mygration Christian Conference. 

We hope you will join us for this special event. Register today!
