CHICAGO, IL (December 17, 2008) - The Covenant Companion is looking for writers from within the Evangelical Covenant Church to submit articles about their lives as immigrants to North America.
The essays will be published in an upcoming issue focusing on immigrant experience, says Cathy Norman Peterson, features editor of the award-winning magazine.
The essays should address questions such as, “What is it like to live as an immigrant in this country?” “Were you welcomed when you arrived?” “What has the assimilation process involved?” Peterson says. “We are looking for personal experiences, including specific stories, from a range of ethnicities.”
Essays should be no more than 500 words. All submissions must be received by January 4. Please direct submissions to Covenant Communications.
The Covenant Companion consistently is listed among the top denominational magazines in the country as part of the Best of the Christian Press competition held annually by Associated Church Press.

This country was built by immigrants, it will continue to attract and need immigrants. Some people think there are enough people here now -- people have been saying this since the 1700s and it still is not true. They are needed to make up for our aging population and low birthrate. Immigrants often are entrepreneurs, creating jobs. We must help them become Americans and not just people who live here and think of themselves as visitors. When immigrants succeed here, the whole country benefits.
