It is estimated that 4,000 refugees made Arizona their home during the last year. The Arizona Conference has taken a major role in providing services for these people in transition.
In 2014, the Refuge and Revelation Center (R&R) opened its doors in Phoenix under the direction of Pastor Glenn Sta. Ana, assistant to the president for Asian-Pacific Ministries. He explains, “Our mission at the R&R Center is to serve the refugee communities encompassing metro Phoenix and its suburbs. We serve the Burmese, Karen, Karenni, Chin, Kachin, and some other minor ethnic Myanmar refugees. We likewise serve the Congolese populace coming from various ethnic tribes.”
