And the king will answer them, “Truly I tell you, just as you did it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, you did it to me.” - Matthew 25:40
Donations for Respite Center
In response to requests from Dallas County Judge Clay Jenkins and the Dallas Office of Welcoming Communities and Immigrant Affairs, Faith Forward Dallas at Thanks-Giving Square, a collaborative convening of many of the area’s multi-faith clergy and non-profit organizations has brought together the volunteer resources necessary to respond to help our border cities handle the overwhelming influx of legal asylum seekers by acting as intake and respite centers, compassionate caregivers, and expediters/facilitators of their travel.
Oak Lawn UMC is serving as the local Respite Center and is collecting items needed by the asylum seekers as they travel from El Paso to their final destinations in the US. Immediate needs include:
- Men's shorts and pants (sizes small, medium, 28-34)
- Men's belts (sizes 28-34)
Bring your donations to FUMCR to be delivered to OLUMC.
