Latter-day Saints have a responsibility to welcome and help refugees. See this entry from the Church’s General Handbook, 38.8.35:

38.8.35
Refugees
Many people have fled their homes seeking relief from violence, war, religious persecution, and life-threatening situations. As part of their responsibility to care for those in need (see Mosiah 4:26), Church members offer their time, talents, and friendship to welcome refugees as members of their communities. See Matthew 25:35; ChurchofJesusChrist.org/refugees.

Learn more on the Church’s page ChurchofJesusChrist.org/refugees.
