The Episcopal Church says it will NOT help resettle the white South African refugees due to Trump admin hypocrisy

Letter from Presiding Bishop Sean Rowe on Episcopal Migration Ministries

May 12, 2025 Dear People of God in The Episcopal Church: I am writing today with some significant news about Episcopal Migration Ministries, the organization that leads The Episcopal Church’s refugee resettlement ministry. Since January, the previously bipartisan U.S. Refugee Admissions Program...

Since January, the previously bipartisan U.S. Refugee Admissions Program in which we participate has essentially shut down. Virtually no new refugees have arrived, hundreds of staff in resettlement agencies around the country have been laid off, and funding for resettling refugees who have already arrived has been uncertain. Then, just over two weeks ago, the federal government informed Episcopal Migration Ministries that under the terms of our federal grant, we are expected to resettle white Afrikaners from South Africa whom the U.S. government has classified as refugees.

In light of our church’s steadfast commitment to racial justice and reconciliation and our historic ties with the Anglican Church of Southern Africa, we are not able to take this step. Accordingly, we have determined that, by the end of the federal fiscal year, we will conclude our refugee resettlement grant agreements with the U.S. federal government.

MAGA was a white nationalist movement from the very start. None of this should be a surprise.

Good for them. Maybe they can help kick off some much-needed resistance to the Nazi regime.

Very cutesy, very demure for an insane fukking request

And the right is blatantly lying about what the Church's position is. They're framing it as them, "refusing to help Afrikaners because they are white" rather than their true position of, "we are protesting Trump making an exception to his refugee policy for Afrikaners because they are white".

Pure evil.

They really need to call it what it is.

Had these other fools and c00ns voting for this dumb shyt and it was a neo-nazi party masquerading as political.

I ain't religious, but real religious people are on the right side of all this bullshyt. There's too many using religion as a front for personal gain.

Didn’t they come from England? Why don’t they go back there?

Most people are lying whether they call themselves religious or not.

That's just the majority now. People are lying most of the time to "get ahead"

If they have to fake a lifestyle that is what they do
