“I was stranger, and you welcomed me” (Matt. 25:35).

Are you wanting to do something positive in response to the immigration crisis on our Southern border? Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service is an organization rooted in faith, serving refugees and immigrants through resettlement, foster care, family reunification, community engagement, empowerment, and addressing the crisis at the border.

Some generous NHLC donors have agreed to match our donations to LIRS. For every $1 we raise, $3 will be matched up to $5,000! This is a great opportunity to support the work of LIRS with our immigrants and refugees. Please make checks payable to Nokomis Heights, adding “LIRS” in the memo line.

If you want to contribute electronically via Simply Giving, contact Dana Lonn at simply@nokomisheights.org.

Matching grant donations will be received through Sun, 9/29.

LIRS has been a champion for refugees from around the globe for nearly 80 years. For more information on LIRS, visit www.lirs.org.
