Getting Started with Refugee Resettlement

I was just asked an interesting question…  “I have 5 minutes to talk about refugee resettlement at a Bible study.  What should I be sure to say?” Hmm.  There’s so much that can be said about refugee resettlement.  How do you make an impression in just 5 minutes? Certainly it’s good to know the audience.  In this […]

Refugee Resettlement Book

Well, it has been quite some time since I have written here.  We had a bit more stuggle with the last family we helped resettle.  There are a number of reasons for the difficulties, but nothing really worth mentioning here.  I’m only mentioning this as a segue to bridge the gap from the last post […]

Helping Refugees Find Home
