What we do
The White's Chapel Refugee Initiative is a ministry of White's Chapel Methodist Church. Good-hearted persons of all affiliations and faiths are welcome to participate. Our volunteers combine their varied backgrounds and talents to assist U.S.-sponsored (legal) refugees through their resettlement and transition into American life. We help families succeed and thrive in their new world. Together, we cover the waterfront of solutions to life's questions.
