To respond to the crush of migrants fleeing wars in Central America in the 1980s, Jubilee Partners bought a bus and for eight years shut- tled back and forth to South Texas, where they interviewed arrivals and selected strong candi- dates for asylum. Though the United States, as a signatory to the United Nations’ 1967 refugee protocol, agrees to grant asylum to people fleeing persecution, most Central Americans are denied refugee status on the pretext that they are migrating primarily for economic reasons. “We brought thirteen hundred Salva- dorans and Guatemalans and a few Hondurans through Jubilee,” Mosley recalls. “The United States rejected them, but we managed to get them legally through the United States, and the Canadians accepted them.” About a quarter of the refugees who have passed through Jubilee Partners are Muslim. They are invited to attend the community’s Christian prayer services, but are also offered transportation to the nearest mosque. Many Muslim refugees, such as those from Bosnia, fled persecution from Christians. “We don’t hear that side of it very much in this country,” Mosley says. “In one case, a man came to us with scars all over his chest, crosses. He said a man stood there and carved those crosses on his chest with a knife and said, ‘I’m converting you to a Christian.’” At Jubilee Partners, these victims see a different face of Christianity, and healing begins. One Muslim man told Mosley and his wife, Carolyn, “I feel that I have actu- ally seen Jesus here.” After a Cuban refugee died of a heart attack at Jubilee Partners, the community started a cemetery. Later, community members began to visit people on Georgia’s death row, something they continue to do frequently. They offer these prisoners burial in that same little cemetery, should they end up being executed. So far, at least six such individuals have been buried there. Don Mosley says, “I’ll be very honored if someday my remains are out there among all those death row folks and Congolese and Burmese and whomever.” Beyond Borders As they listened to refugees’ stories, Jubilee Partners decided that helping new arrivals was not enough; they had to do something about the root causes. In the years since, Don Mosley Refugees and Jubilee staff lead the local Christmas parade in Comer, Georgia.
