Our Mission, “Putting God’s love into action by assisting the refugee and asylum-seeking community to re-establish and assimilate their lives in the United States.”
Our vision is to effectively fulfill the needs of refugees through volunteers and by the financial assistance of many individuals and our local partners.
“The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born…” Lev. 19:34
“…Love your neighbor as yourself…” Matt. 12:31
We partner with like-minded organizations to help refugees through the services below:
Furniture Ministry: Refugees have little to no cash, yet are in desperate need of items to furnish their apartments. Furniture donation is a great way of blessing them while creating opportunities for interaction.

CHURCH PARTNERSHIP
We offer opportunities to church attendees to demonstrate God’s love in tangible ways by treating newcomers to the US with loving kindness and giving them a hand up, in the same manner that God freely gives His grace.
