World Relief

A ministry of  hope.  A ministry of compassion. Giving hope.  Replanting lives.

Every year, World Relief staff and volunteers help thousands of refugees - victims of famine, war or persecution - replant their lives in the United States. With 23 offices across the U.S., World Relief is the largest evangelical refugee resettlement agency in America. Their mission is to empower the church to serve the most vulnerable.

Refugee familes arrive every week with little more than the shirts on their backs and are in need of basic provisions.

World Relief staff and volunteers come alongside our new neighbors to help them adjust to the culture, find employment, learn English, take steps towards citizenship and build a future for their families.

There are several ways to get involved:

• "Adopt" a refugee family to pray for and meet with regularly. Help them figure out life in America, from buying groceries to getting around, finding jobs to learning English. 

• Serve in the "Tea Room" where refugees come for friendship, advice, training classes, and basic Bible stories (and tea!). 
• Help host monthly Welcome Parties for refugees just arriving to the U.S. 

• Give! Make a secure financial donation here or donate new and gently used items (see WR's donation guidelines).
