Invite your church to host an International Student Sunday (ISS)!

International students often struggle with culture shock, stress, and loneliness when leaving their homes to study in the US. International Friendships, Inc. (IFI) is a national organization partnering with local churches, universities, and volunteers to provide life-changing hospitality and friendship to international students. We work strategically to make the world feel at home and extend God’s love globally — right where we are.

Share the global impact your church can have by engaging in IFI's Columbus ministry towards international students.
