Every person is made in the image of God and is of utmost value.

Our Displaced Neighbors

Welcome Kits. Good Neighbor Teams. Host Homes.

There are more people than ever who have been forcibly displaced from their homelands due to war, famine, and religious persecution. These people are desperately seeking refuge in a country or community not their own. Through a local partner organization, our church is being equipped to provide the warmest of biblical hospitality and places of welcome to our new neighbors.
