The International Connections team is a group of volunteers at FBC Durham who enjoy getting to know and serve people from all over the world.
We host a variety of activities and events in the Raleigh-Durham area that provide opportunities for internationals to practice English,
form friendships, learn about American culture, and study the Bible. It's our joy to welcome and serve our international friends, loving the sojourner just as God has loved us.
Below are some of our opportunities to connect.
