Refugee Ministry Need for Storage Space

Our Refugee Ministry is in need of approximately 9 feet by 12 feet of storage space for donated furniture. We have had some very nice furniture offered, but at this time there is no space to store it at the church, meaning we will have to decline the offer unless we find some space. The space would be needed for a period of months (3-6) while we are working towards adopting our second family. This furniture would provide a huge start towards establishing a home for another family. The need is great. Currently there are three Afghani families in our area living in 4-H shelters awaiting a church to adopt them. Please let Joanne Charles know if you can provide this space.

On another note, three of our current adopted family, Sohaila, Rana, and Sana, were delighted to come to the recent SJEC/SJES social picnic and had a wonderful time meeting new friends. Sana even managed to win a cake at the cake walk! Both Sohaila and Mohammad are now learning English in their home from our own Sylvie Settles, who is providing them weekly tutoring.
