Dear Mr. President, 

 

First and foremost, I want to introduce myself and the desire the Lord has put on my heart. 

My name is Grace Venning, I’m an 18 year old highschool graduate with a passion for freedom. A passion to break the chains of captivity for refugees around the globe. 

The following words are not my own. They are the Lord’s. I am a simple vessel to remind you of the truth. 

Refugees are a constant in our world today. With heartbreaking sadness, i’m constantly reminded of this. In the past year they have slipped in and out of the news and public eye. But, i’m here to remind you, that regardless if they make the 7 o’clock special, they are there

They are suffereing. They are dying. 

THEY ARE, REAL PEOPLE. 

With real mothers. Real fathers. Real brothers and sisters. 

Real dreams, hopes, and aspirations for a stable future. 

So, here I am. Simply presenting you with yet another opportunity to send help. To do something meaningful. Impactful. World shaking & Life-altering. Give resources and aid. Give hope. Give them a chance. Use the authority that the Lord has given you to do some good

Turn their cry into a roar of hope.

Draw a stream of constant attention. 

Cause a riot for a real cause.

Invoke sleepless nights.

Remind our nation to care.

 

With so many blessings, 

Grace Venning
