"You must love [the immigrant] as yourself, because you were immigrants in the land of Egypt; I am the Lord your God." - Leviticus 19:24

As we seek to love our neighbors near and far,  we are partnering with the African Community Center, and Deer Park United Methodist Church to Nest-A-Home for a newly-arrived refugee family settling in the Denver area.

Nesting a Home involves collecting all the initial furnishings and household items that a family will need as they settle into their new home in the USA. At UMCE, we are coordinating the collection of items to ensure that when a refugee family arrives, they have a safe, secure, and fully stocked home in which to begin their new lives.

You can help! This project happens at UMCE every year during the season of Lent.
