The World Relief organization, Wisconsin’s Chippewa Valley chapter, will share their expertise with Blue Hill Unitarian Universalists on Sunday, June 30th. Community Engagement Specialist, Jodi Jewell will journey to Rice Lake to share news of their work in helping refugees from around the world.
“World Relief” is a global Christian humanitarian organization that has been working for over 80 years to contend with the world’s greatest crises, in partnership with the church. Their work primarily centers around refugee resettlement, so those who’ve been forced to leave their home country due to war, violence, or persecution because of race, religion, nationality or political issues may find a safe place to belong.
After the service, several members will host Ms. Jewell to Sunday Brunch, to which all are invited, extending the opportunity for discussion with Ms. Jewell.
Everyone is welcome at BHUU; Sunday services begin at 10 a.m., 230 W. Messenger, Rice Lake, and on Zoom. The zoom link is sent to members, although all interested may request it by contacting patriciashifferd@gmail.com. https://bluehillsuu.org
