Walnut Hills United Methodist Church in Urbandale, Iowa, lives into its mission statement, “A place to call home, where all are welcome, nourished spiritually, and sent forth to serve" by proactively welcoming and loving all people.  This radical welcome and love can be witnessed in Walnut Hills' involvement with the Iowa Sanctuary movement (ISM).  As a supporting member of the Iowa Sanctuary movement, Walnut Hills UMC is in solidarity with undocumented immigrants and their families.  Even more members of Walnut Hills volunteer regularly at the Iowa Justice for Our Neighbors clinics (JFON) by assisting folks seeking legal assistance with asylum and citizenship cases and by accompanying immigrants when they come to their ICE check-ins.
