Statement that you heard a refugee say to you:
- They cried because we prayed for them in name of Jesus.
- Thanks for making us feel human again.
- In reference to the Bible: this is my greatest treasure now.
- The Bible gives freedom.
How has your view of refugees changed?
- We are more connected to them than I thought.
- The refugee crisis is not just negative as most media portrays but it is God’s kindness and grace to them to hear gospel in a new country.
- Their journey is not necessarily the worst part of their story. What were they running from?
How has your view of God changed?
- In midst of difficulty, He is there.
- He is calling us to engage the crisis of the ages but we are ignoring it.
- I have more confidence in prayer. He answers in specific ways and abundantly.
- We are called to be an ambassador for refugees back in USA not just be an American ambassador to refugees here.
