German Homeschool Family Given Permission To Stay

John 20:29 NCV Then Jesus told him, “You believe because you see me. Those who believe without seeing me will be truly blessed.”

The Department of Homeland Security has stepped in and saved a Christian family from being deported to Germany where they likely would have lost custody of their children.

A spokesman for the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement told Fox News that they were going to allow the Romeike family to remain in the United States despite efforts by the Obama administration to have them deported.

Just days after a federal judge ruled the administration could deny the family’s request for asylum based on the grounds they were being discriminated against in Germany because of their Christian beliefs, DHS said that they would use “prosecutorial discretion” and officially drop any actions to deport the family.

Germany forced all children to attend state-approved schools and prohibits the homeschooling of children in an attempt to keep religious groups from being able to teach their faith to their children.

The family had initially been given asylum in 2010 on religious grounds but the Obama administration appealed that decision and won when the Supreme Court refused to hear the appeal on Monday.

  1. Praise the Lord that this family has been given permission to stay in the United States. I do believe it was answer to all the Christians praying for them. There is power in prayer as we all very well know. I do hope that this family was informed of all the Christians praying for them.

  2. Praise the Lord, I’ve been praying daily God would intervene on behalf of this family and He’s answered prayer…..
