I had the privilege of visiting a community housed by a large population of refugee families. Many of the younger kids that live here attend the school where I taught for years now. It took me far too long to make my visit with my friend Scarlet and her ministry family, Serving Strangers. The people of this ministry are incredibly generous and are impacing lives daily in order to bring glory to God.
Walking into this community, you feel like you are walking into another country. Yet, I felt very human, very American, wondering how they live without what I consider basic necessities. Scarlet and her ministry offer supplies, support, and love to these families. Today, I saw a glimpse of God's love that stretches over language and cultural barriers.
