Helping Afghan Families in Need
Welcome to the E3 New Afghan Neighbors page of St Paul's United Methodist Church. We are dedicated to making a positive impact in our community and supporting those in need, especially during challenging times. As part of our commitment to faith and beliefs, we have launched the E3 Refuge Relief program, aimed at providing support and refuge for Afghan families who have recently arrived in our city.
Who We Are
St Paul's United Methodist Church has been a central pillar in our community for over 100 years. As a faith-based organization, we believe in the power of compassion, empathy, and reaching out to those who are in need. Our mission is to create a community that welcomes and embraces diversity, fostering an environment of love, understanding, and support.
Empowering Afghan Families
The E3 Refuge Relief program is our response to the pressing needs of Afghan families who have been affected by the recent events in their home country. Our goal is to provide a safe and nurturing environment where they can rebuild their lives, access necessary resources, and ultimately integrate into our community.

We believe that every individual has the power to make a difference, no matter how big or small. We invite you to join us in this important mission of supporting our new Afghan neighbors. Here are some ways you can contribute:
- Volunteer: Share your time and skills by volunteering at our community center. Help teach English, assist with job applications, or provide emotional support to the families.

- Become a Sponsor: Consider becoming a sponsor for individual families, providing ongoing financial support and guidance as they navigate their new lives in our community.
Building Bridges of Understanding
We believe that fostering understanding and breaking down barriers is essential for the long-term success of Afghan families in our community. Through cultural exchange events, educational workshops, and community initiatives, we aim to create an environment where everyone's unique backgrounds and experiences are valued and celebrated.
Education and Integration
Education plays a vital role in empowering individuals and enabling them to build a brighter future. Our E3 Refuge Relief program focuses on providing access to education and vocational training for Afghan families, ensuring their successful integration into our society.
Mental Health and Emotional Well-being Support
The journey toward healing and rebuilding can be challenging, especially for those who have experienced trauma. That's why we offer comprehensive mental health support and counseling services to Afghan families, providing them with the tools and support they need to overcome emotional hardships.
