How to Help Refugee Families this Week

The family of 7 that was staying with us moved into their own apartment over the weekend! We celebrate with them and pray for a smooth transition into their new home, school, and community.

We are still hosting the family of 11 at the church and we need help with evening, weekend, ESL instruction (previous experience preferred) and especially overnight hosts. An updated list of volunteer spots can be found here: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/20f0845adab28a4f49-innkeeper

We’ve also added a few more items to the household shopping needs list: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/20f0845adab28a4f49-refugee

Thank you!
