"Keep on loving one another as brothers and sisters. Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers for by doing that some have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it." Hebrews 13:1-2
Refugee Sunday 2025—Created by God to be Free
Suggested Date: June 29, 2025
No one is a refugee by choice. Each year, millions of people around the world are forced to flee their homes due to war, persecution and human rights violation. There are more than 26 million refugees in the world today.
At World Renew, we are committed to helping families rebuild their lives with dignity. Inspired by scripture and God’s love for all, we seek to reach out and serve refugees. Your church's offering on Refugee Sunday helps to fund the World Renew Refugee Sponsorship and Resettlement Program.
World Renew is an Sponsorship Agreement Holder with Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada. We partner with churches, other faith-based organizations and sponsoring groups to sponsor and resettle refugees to Canada. We invite your church to become a refugee sponsor, where you'll have the opportunity to welcome and walk alongside refugees as they settle in their new home in Canada.
