Can I force a session to update from the server side?

I have user profiles created by passport, which get stored in mongodb with connect-mongo. If i update the users profile for a session, I have to run req.login() to trigger passport to update the users session to match the new database info. If I change another user from my admin account I can't run this function, is there a way I can update it for the user, or trigger it to get updated the next time their session gets loaded?

I ended up having to do it all manually:

1. search sessions for one with matching user id
2. load latest user info and replace in session
3. save new info back to database

var mongoose = require('mongoose'); var Schema = mongoose.Schema;

const SessionSchema = new Schema({_id: String}, { strict: false });
const Session = mongoose.model('sessions', SessionSchema, 'sessions');

var User = require('../queries/single.js');

module.exports = function (userId, callback) {

    console.log('finding session for',userId);

    Session.findOne({session: {$regex: userId}},null,{lean: true},(err, session)=>{
        if (err) return callback(err);
        if (!session) return callback('user session not found');

        //parse session
        var sessionJson = JSON.parse(session.session);

        //add reset flag
        sessionJson.passport.user.resetSession = true;

        //get updated user info
        User({_id: sessionJson.passport.user._id}, (err, updatedUser)=>{
            if (err) return callback(err);

            //add new user info to session json
            sessionJson.passport.user = updatedUser;

            //save back to session
            Session.findOneAndUpdate({_id: session._id},{$set: {session: JSON.stringify(sessionJson)}}, (err, savedSession) => {
                if (err) return callback(err);

                //success
                return callback(null);
            });

        });
    });
};
