Heavenly Father, As I enter another week of my Lenten journey, guide me to the path that leads to you. Fill my heart with gratitude, patience, strength, and peace as I strive to become the-best-version-of-myself, honestly admitting my shortcomings and sins. |

I am connected with RAP (Refugee Assistance Partners) from Scotch Plains, an organization that works with the International Rescue Committee (IRC) in Elizabeth and their clients. An Afghani family with 5 children needs a vehicle either as a donation or for a low price, $1,000.RAP is a 501(c)(3) so this is tax deductible.
ONGOING NEED FOR DONATED OR LOW-COST CARS
Car donations or very low-cost cars in working condition are an
ongoing need for refugee families of all sizes through Refugee
Assistance Partners (RAP), a Union County interfaith organization
that has helped settle over 350 refugees from the Middle East, Africa,
and Central America. If you have or know of any cars available for low
cost or donation, please contact Maryjane Finne at 908-447-6771.
