Afghanistan Refugee Assistance
As a devoted body of Christ we at Salem are called to love the foreigner, the refugee.

We invite our members to love those in or from Afghanistan in the following ways:
Pray
Pray passionately over the Afghanistan refugee crisis. There is extraordinary power in prayer and we as God’s people should make it our priority. If you don’t have the time or resources to serve or give you are still able to participate in the important ministry of prayer for these refugees.
Serve
Serve the refugees coming to the Triangle through World Relief Durham. World Relief needs people to volunteer their time and energy to help refugees resettle. Anyone interested in helping should check out the many opportunities listed on their volunteer page:
World Relief Volunteers
Give
Give to help the Afghan refugees and those helping to resettle them here in Raleigh. The Raleigh Baptist Association has been asked to help the many Afghan families and translators that are being transitioned to Raleigh from Afghanistan over the next few days and weeks. Checks can be written out to Salem Baptist Church with “RBA – Refugee” as the memo.
