Thankful for Senator Moran, Senator Amy Klobuchar, the other cosponsors of this bill & their hardworking staffs

I'm still praying that, one way or the other, this bill makes it into the final version of the National Defense Authorization Act that goes to the president's desk

An interesting thing has happened a number of times today. I reshared this post and several people have subsequently shared it, but I’ve noticed a bunch of wh*te women who did so with some kind of added context or caveat.

This new process represents an immense weight lifted off the shoulders of our new Afghan neighbors after nearly two years of grappling with the uncertainty of their tenuous legal status.

We were so thankful to gather with our Triangle community Trinity Baptist along with We Welcome last Tuesday to dig into the Bible's call to welcome and love the stranger -- and what that means for how we approach immigration policy.

The Holy Post Podcast is partnering with World Relief on a new segment: 'News of the Good'

This week's topic: Title 42…which wasn't really good, nor is the replacement policy

But how my @WRSoCA colleagues & local churches are stepping up to care is! youtu.be/pGbOauhTz7Q?t=…

'Even if every single one of the 2022 crossers were admitted and allowed to work today, the U.S. would still be millions of workers short.'

One of the biggest challenges facing refugee resettlement right now is the challenge of finding affordable housing, particularly when refugees initially arrive and do not yet have a credit history

Churches are stepping up to meet this need, and we're so grateful! World Relief Durham
