We’re excited to invite you to join us for a special picnic in Fullerton for refugee families living in the area! This event, hosted in partnership with VOX Church, will be a wonderful opportunity to enjoy fellowship with our neighbors and build meaningful connections. The picnic will take place on Saturday, January 25th, from 10 AM to 12 PM, and we ask volunteers to arrive no later than 9 AM for a time of prayer and orientation and stay to 1pm to help tear down or help with transportation. Along with sharing food and laughter, we’ll have activities to practice English conversation and a fun children’s program to keep the little ones engaged. Let’s come together to extend love and hospitality to these families. We look forward to seeing you there!

This picnic is more than just a gathering; it’s a step toward breaking the isolation and loneliness many refugee families experience as newcomers. By creating a space for connection, conversation, and shared activities, we’re helping these families build a sense of community and belonging. Events like this provide an opportunity for them to form relationships, practice English, and feel seen, valued, and supported in their new environment. Together, we can make a tangible difference in their journey of settling into a new home.
