Recently, Pope Francis urged Roman Catholic parishes in Europe to host refugees and even said the Vatican will take in 2 families. This is part of the church’s call and we as Lutherans hold to that same belief. The Bible is clear about the fact we are called to walk alongside those in need. This is our response to God’s grace in Jesus Christ. Do you wonder how we can do that? One way is prayer. We can never go wrong with open and honest prayer to God. A second way is supporting various agencies working on the ground bringing aid and relief. One of those is our very own Lutheran Disaster Response. See the link below to learn more about it and how you can give.
