From the President Dear fellow sojourner, Abundance wasn’t a word we heard much in 2008. Words such as scarcity and shortage dominated headlines and commentary. But our reality stated otherwise. As you read about our year, you’ll discover that, more than scarcity and shortage, LIRS experienced abundance. Abundance of hope. Abundance of welcome. With every refugee you helped resettled through your generosity of spirit, gifts and time, abundance was shared. With every newcomer who graced our communities, gifts of presence, hope and heritage created an abundance where we live and work. Abundant faith through acts of prayer and mercy sustained hope for asylum seekers and children who found themselves in America afraid and alone. LIRS sojourned this past year, much like the Israelites did in the wilderness, but through your care and concern we came to identify the manna in our midst. The economy wasn’t very strong, but in the midst of that wilderness, you worked with us through programs such as Be Not Afraid to create an abundance of support and solidarity. God has a way making new life spring forth in the desert, and the newcomers you and I have been blessed to serve and know have more than a knack for doing that as well. This year, more than many other I can recall, reminded us that we all sojourn in the wilderness. LIRS took to heart the lesson we learn every day from our newcomer neighbors—God’s abundance is not eliminated by scarcity. In fact, scarcity often makes God’s abundance stand in bold relief so that we can clearly identify it and claim it as God’s gift to us. This year of headlines, heavy with stories about shortage, reminded us that God welcomes all of us and in that welcome we discover abundance, often in spite of the scarcity that surrounds us. I have been welcomed through baptism to God’s abundance. With you, through grace and faith, we live out this abundance through acts of courage and welcome. I am grateful that you have sojourned with LIRS this year and enabled us to live—together—in God’s abundance even in the midst of headlines and commentary that point in the opposite direction. I welcome and encourage you to sojourn through this annual report and discover the abundance you created in the lives of newcomers in our communities. As sojourners who have received welcome, may we remain confident that God multiplies abundance as we extend a warm welcome to others. With thanksgiving, Ralston H. Deffenbaugh, Jr. President The LIRS Board of Directors Executive Committee Board Chair and Executive Committee Chair— Elaine Richter Bryant (LCMS), adjunct professor, Concordia University, Ballwin, Mo.

The 11 nationalities resettled included 2,523 Burmese, 1,037 Bhutanese, 1,745 Iraqis, and 536 Iranians as well as Somalis, Cubans, Ethiopians, Eritreans, Sudanese, North Koreans and people from the former Soviet Union.

When the Hareeja children got home from school, they were beaming from a day filled with new words and new experiences, and eager to share schoolwork and art projects with new friends. Their excitement over school assignments turned to intrigue as the caseworker showed their father how to test his blood sugar levels. LIRS helps resettled refugees find home, hope and healing…and many new adventures in a new land! • …served 3,662 refugee clients through job training, placement and retention programs, resulting in employment for 79 percent at an average hourly wage of $8.61, up from $8.38 in 2007. • …presented workshops on employment and self-sufficiency to 815 refugee service professionals across the country, giving them better tools to help newcomers succeed in America. • …helped 305 refugee women with a total of 701 children gain sewing, computer, employment and English skills and increase self-esteem. Thank You! The President’s Council Donors to LIRS provide so much more than financial support. You abundantly supply welcome to new neighbors in our communities. For 70 years you have opened wide the door of hospitality to immigrants and refugees in need of community and security. The newcomers LIRS serves enrich the fabric of our country, and we are grateful to you for saying welcome through your generosity. Each day your gifts support our mission, and because you have chosen to sustain LIRS through your gifting, we can look forward to the next seven decades of service to migrants at risk.

Rheumatic fever had left him with an enlarged heart, and in October he underwent successful, lifesaving open heart surgery to repair three valves. With loving support from his foster family, Loi recuperated at home, receiving private instruction to continue his studies. Though he arrived in the United States with just a sixth-grade education, Loi completed the 10th grade with flying colors. Now Loi is sharing his abundant new life by sending some of his summer job earnings back to relatives in Burma. Advocates ($500–999) Augsburg Lutheran Home, Baltimore, Md.

A May 12, 2008, immigration raid devastated Postville, Iowa, as one in five residents was arrested. Lilian’s family was among many who were separated without warning and without goodbyes. The hardworking homeowner, Lutheran church member and mother of four U.S. citizen children was arrested and faced immediate deportation. Her family faced a terrible choice: to stay here, separated from Lilian, or to leave America and join her in exile. LIRS provided legal counsel for many like Lilian who were detained in Postville.

When Patrice’s husband’s political activism angered Cameroonian government soldiers, they took revenge by sexually assaulting his young wife. Fearing for her life, Patrice fled her homeland, finally finding her way to the United States. When she arrived at the airport and told immigration authorities that she was seeking political asylum, they sent her to a detention center. An attorney affiliated with LIRS’s legal support network for torture survivors in detention met Patrice and arranged for volunteer doctors to evaluate her medical and psychological condition. The attorney used their reports to win Patrice’s asylum case. Patrice is now making the healing journey from abuse to abundance.
