Lent is a time when we can reflect on our thoughts and actions and renew our commitment to be Christ’s companion. At Jesuit Refugee Service, this means a particular commitment to be companions of refugees.
For many of us, we need this call to recommit. We are tired – tired of negative headlines about refugees, of rhetoric that cuts against the grain of our faith and values, and of the significant unmet needs that exist around the world.
We invite you to use this publication, Renewing Welcome – with reflections, prayers, and actions you can take – to renew your commitment to refugees as we prepare for the renewal of Christ and the resurrection.
