A Big Extended Family Welcome!

October 1, 2020

A family was finally fully reunited this week for the first time in 6 years. The full extended family fled persecution in Burma together, and lived in a refugee camp in Thailand together. But due to delays in the refugee resettlement process, the mom’s 5 siblings and her parents arrived in Minnesota earlier than she and her immediate family were able to.

 

In late September, after 6 years, they are all in Minnesota together. The mom, dad, and their 4 children were able to hug their grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins.

 

Our staff and a church team from Church of the Redeemer and St. John’s Anglican in Arden Hills got to experience the joy right alongside of 25 of their family members waiting for their midnight airport arrival.

 

Welcome to your new home! We are happy to have you here!
