I have it from a very reliable source that President Trump is about to reach historic deals with Japan and South Korea to allow us to build military bases in their country, allowing us to keep a close eye on China. Can Guam be far behind?
I used to be enamored with politicians who openly used Christian faith language in interviews and speeches.
I’m now far more enamored when politicians openly treat others with Christian kindness.
Here is the link for giving to World Relief to help continue the support work Trump has just cut. These are refugees that went through the legal program, were vetted by the state dept and are already here, relying on promised support.

This administration is making America cruel. Christian agencies that resettle refugees (like World Relief and Global Refuge) desperately need support now that Trump has pulled the rug out from under refugees already here.

"If by mass deportation President-elect Trump means deporting all undocumented immigrants, that would mean deporting the parents of 4 to 5 million children… That would be very troubling to us at @WorldRelief & the vast majority of Evangelical Christians" https://t.co/HtlrPqoSxe
God,
Keep my anger from becoming meanness.
Keep my sorrow from collapsing into self-pity.
Keep my heart soft enough to keep breaking.
Keep my anger turned towards justice, not cruelty.
Remind me that all of this, every bit of it, is for love.
Keep me fiercely kind.
Amen.
A prayer for days like today from @LauraJeanTruman

Immigrants & Election Week: How Churches of Welcome Go From Rhetoric to Relationships and Reaching

A periodic reminder that refugees are legal migrants.
They enter into the U.S, at the invitation of the U.S. government (after a robust security vetting process.)
America has a long history of welcoming vulnerable people.
In fact, the U.S refugee resettlement program is one of the ways the USG can help persecuted Christians around the world.
Last Autumn, @WorldRelief & @OpenDoorsUS released a report detailing the current state of religious persecution around the world and its connection to U.S. refugee resettlement and asylum policies.
