A Refugee Coordinating Team Update

Our Afghan refugee family, the Hashimis, have made so much progress building a new life in the US. They completed the arduous application process for asylum and now have legal residency as asylees. The family can pursue the opportunity to visit their father in Dubai, where he is stranded. He has applied for humanitarian parole status and now, because his wife has asylee status, he will apply for admission as her spouse. We are also very happy that the family has moved out of their temporary housing arrangement provided through Princeton Seminary and are now in their own housing at Princeton Community Village. The siblings are working and completing their education. We ask for your continued prayers, particularly for their reunification with the father, and are truly grateful for your continued support.

Coat Drive for PTS International Students

through Monday, September 25

Many international students arrive in New Jersey without adequate protection against our winters. To help prepare them for the climate, we are collecting unused and gently worn men’s and women’s light jackets, heavy coats, fleece pullovers and winter accessories. This year we also have requests for items for children, newborn to age 10. Each Sunday morning bring your donation to the designated area in the Assembly Room or contact the church office to schedule a drop-off time during the week. Your help is appreciated!
