Peace has been partnering with World Relief to sponsor refugees for resettlement in the Chippewa Valley. Every Presidential administration has different priorities, but regardless of their country of origin, World Relief has consistently offered incoming refugees the same services and kindness, while continuing to advocate for and care for those who are most vulnerable.

Currently, the U.S. is primarily resettling Afrikaners from South Africa. This population has different resources and experiences than other populations World Relief has previously resettled. At the same time, these people will still benefit from support that enables them to flourish in a new place. Upon arrival, World Relief is seeking donations of apartment supplies to help them feel welcome as they settle into their home in the U.S.

Peace has agreed to assist. We are told that the families arriving typically consist of 2 parents and a teenager, possibly 2 children.

All donations must be dropped off at the church by March 8, 2026.
