Hi Phil,
At 3:45pm on Friday, January 24th, we were notified that all government funded activities serving almost 4,000 of our refugee clients here in the U.S. must cease effective immediately. This means families who have been promised refuge and life-saving services in our neighborhoods and communities are now at risk of going hungry and homeless. Your donations are now the only way we can provide basic assistance in the form of food, shelter, transportation, and other essential support services.
While we are still trying to grapple with the consequences of this order and urgently seeking further clarity from the government, one thing is clear. Together, we are now the only lifeline for the hundreds of families devastated by this announcement.
The circumstances are dire, and refugee families need your help right now.
Over the coming days we will be sharing more information with you about what exactly this means for the thousands of refugees we currently serve here in the U.S.
For now, we urgently and humbly request that you give generously and join us in praying, Lord, have mercy.
