Global Refuge has welcomed more than 750,000 migrants and refugees to the United States through the initiative of Lutheran congregations that inspired our formation in 1939, and Lutheran churches remain our vital partners as we continue to welcome newcomers.

Rooted in Lutherans’ faithful and caring response to the challenges facing uprooted peoples, Global Refuge celebrates strong collaborative relationships. Each denomination brings a commitment to following God’s call to love the sojourner, the experience of being an immigrant church, and the leadership to make ministry with migrants and refugees a priority. Each contributes financially to the Global Refuge mission.
