World relief is a global humanitarian organization that partners with local churches to bring hope, healing, and transformation to the most vulnerable. They focus on creating communities of love and welcome for our immigrant and refugee neighbors. In 2017, Holy Trinity Church partnered with World Relief to sponsor an Afghan family. Our “Good Neighbor Team” assisted with the family’s transition into a new culture, including the pursuit of employment, medical care, school enrollment for the children, transportation, a driver’s license and new car. In response to the Afghan refugee crisis of 2021, we are preparing to come alongside another family as they seek to resettle in the US. Supporting a family of four in crisis through their first 90 days of arrival costs $10,000 to ensure they are given housing, medical care, trauma counseling, food and access to case management services as they move toward independence.
