Arrive Ministries mission is to carry out God’s command to welcome and bring lifelong transformation to refugees and immigrants in Minnesota. They accomplish this mission by providing compassionate and holistic support to uprooted people in our communities as we collaborate with churches and community members. They empower, support and encourage one another to be God’s agents of love, hope and care to our new neighbors. Hope supports Arrive Ministries through SALT and Rajo. SALT (Somali Adult Literacy Training) and Rajo are outreach ministries to our Somali neighbors.
SALT volunteers tutor English and help them prepare for the citizenship exam. Contact: Cynthia Crooks at clcrooks@comcast.net,
Rajo ministry is a team of women who meet at Hope the 1st and 3rd Tuesday mornings with Somali women for fellowship and sewing. Contact: Jackie Felt at rfelt@comcast.net.
