Today, as we cast our votes in the U.S., let’s remember that Jesus saw the unseen and stood for those often overlooked. Use your voice today to stand for what Jesus stands for: justice, compassion and love for our neighbors. #electionday #election2024 #vote #seetheunseen

As we approach the weekend, we invite you to pray for refugees and immigrants across the U.S. Many are facing anxieties and fears about the election results and the safety of their loved ones. At World Relief Durham, we see them. #election #Immigrants #refugees #Seen

This Thanksgiving, we honor the legacy of refugees who fled persecution to find safety in a new land. Despite hardship, with help from Indigenous peoples, they survived and thrived. May we extend the same welcome to new pilgrims seeking a fresh start. #Thanksgiving
