Faith in action! How business owners can help welcome new refugees
For something a little different then our normal meeting fare, but timely and important, join us at the Catholic Charities Manassas office for a presentation on how business owners can help our refugee brothers and sisters. Not a sermon, just learning how we can assist this important work!
