Jonathan House - IAFR Asylum seekers come to the US seeking protection from persecution or human rights violations. Paul.

Jonathan House provides supportive housing to asylum-seeking refugees in the Twin Cities, in partnership with local faith communities, asylum service providers, and individuals like you. They come from the most troubled regions of the world in hope of finding safety and a normal life. While completing the years-long asylum process, they face many material challenges, the greatest one being the abi

lity to find stable housing. Jonathan House extends shelter, hope, and healing to asylum-seekers in Minneapolis/St. We offer supportive housing, strategic connections, practical assistance, and a welcoming community with a desire to help our new friends recover from forced displacement and begin to rebuild their lives.

Did you miss the chance to meet our incredible intern Rayna at the Thriving Together event? You missed out (because she is awesome), but no fear! You can still hear some of her beautiful words by checking out our blog. Here is a little sneak peak of a poem she wrote:

It wasn’t just tea you offered.
It wasn’t just food you offered.
It was a bridge between worlds.
Not quite erased.
But shared borders.
You didn’t ask for kindness.
You just poured it.
You just cooked it.
I am unforgettably full.
Hospitality came in the form of you.

This Giving Tuesday, your "yes" to Yusouf and his housemates can change their lives.

God loves Yusouf. In fact, God’s heart overflows with love for every person on the road to safety. Yet, many who come to the U.S. seeking refuge struggle to find a stable place to live. That’s why it’s so exciting when we can say yes and welcome a new friend into the Jonathan House community. ...
