Faith in Action

Forged in faith and rooted in justice

Your faith community can help welcome immigrants and refugees.

Faith communities play a critical role in welcoming new neighbors alongside Global Refuge – just as they have since our founding nearly 85 years ago.

Today, people of all faiths continue to speak out, take action, and embody ministries of welcome in communities across the United States. As witnesses to God’s love for all people, together we stand with and advocate for immigrants and refugees, transforming communities through ministries of service and justice. Explore this page for resources, stories and opportunities for your faith community to take action.

Be a part of a refugee family’s resettlement journey

You and your faith community group can partner with a local resettlement agency to provide wrap-around support to a family entering the United States. This could include home set-up, transportation, meals, and local guidance – but most importantly, being a welcoming friend.
