Lutheran refugee contractor in
Lehigh Valley area of PA to close, running out of money, by Ann Corcoran, 5/21/16
Watch for it!
The contractors will all now be begging Congress for more of your money
because frankly they can’t privately raise the millions upon millions of
dollars resettling tens of thousands of refugees each year costs America.
As highly touted “public-private” partnerships the PUBLIC funds are now
far outweighing the supposed Lutheran Christian charity.
LIRS
communications director, Miji Bell, says they plan to get approval from
Washington for another agency to take over so the flow of Syrians to Allentown
will not be slowed.
Readers may
recognize this agency going under as the one
we discussed a few times
back in October. It is really worth your while to read that post before
this latest news.
So, hummm!,
Lutheran Liberty is tired of losing money! (Just like the taxpayers!). I
wouldn’t be surprised to learn that there is more to this story—did regular
church-going Lutherans get fed up with bringing in the Syrian Muslims (99% of those
entering right now are Muslims***).
ALLENTOWN — The
state’s largest refugee resettlement program is slated to shut down next month,
forcing federal officials to approve a replacement before services in the
Lehigh Valley and across Pennsylvania are interrupted.
Lutheran
Children and Family Services, which has headquarters in Philadelphia and helps
settle about 100 refugees a year in the Lehigh Valley, cited accumulating debt
as a reason for ending most of its social services by June 30.
Officials said
the nonprofit was not receiving enough money to cover immigrant and child
welfare programs and has had to borrow $4.5 million from its parent company,
Liberty Lutheran, to stay afloat.
If you are
considering “welcoming” refugees to your town, read this next line carefully.
This will cost your state and local taxpayers no matter how much the
contractors say the feds pay for it all. The “reimbursement” mentioned is
the payments the federal taxpayer shell out to the contractor.
“Unpredictable state and local funding,
coupled with reimbursement that didn’t cover the true cost of service
contributed to mounting deficit, leaving Liberty to resource millions of
dollars to cover the shortfalls. The generosity of donors has not met the
shortfall,” says a statement on the LCFS home page.
Don’t get too
excited, they plan to be back with a new subcontractor: Efforts are underway to find an agency to take
over the refugee program. The LCFS Refugee Resettlement Program is a local
affiliate of the National Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service, which is
hoping to partner with Baltimore-based Bethany Christian Services to continue
administering refugee relocation services in Pennsylvania. There is more, continue
reading here. The article
goes on to say that there are many Syrians already in this part of PA, BUT there
is no mention that they
are mostly Christians who are not too excited by the
large number of Muslim Syrians being admitted.
By the way,
Pennsylvania is important to them. This is a state teetering on the line
between red state and blue state. These resettlement contractors and the open
borders agitators are working to turn it reliably blue.
Just checking
“government figures” as of May 10th. We admitted 1,943 Syrian refugees (of the
10,000 Obama wants) and 1,922 were some flavor of Muslim. That keeps the
percentage at 99% Muslim for the Syrians resettled in your states so far this
fiscal year.
