Special Offering for October
Support for Refugees from Afghanistan
We are so blessed to have a meaningful partnership with our friends at Jewish Family Services of Metrowest. We have worked together on backpacks for Framingham school children, creating a Framingham hub for Training Active Bystanders, addressing emergency needs during the pandemic, mindfulness packets for students, and our rich relationship with the AlJalou family living in our parsonage.
Because of this partnership, we have a way to offer direct support to families coming to our area from Afghanistan. In the coming months, Jewish Family Services expects to sponsor up to ten refugee families in the Metrowest area, helping them find housing and food, register for school for their children, find language support, jobs and more. During the month of October, our special offering will go to support the work of JFSMW in sponsoring our new neighbors coming from Afghanistan. We invite you to give generously as you are able.
