The Rising Tide – Europe Refugee Crisis

“You’ve probably seen lots of footage on the news of refugees arriving in Greece by boat, but you’ve probably not seen anything like this. You’ve heard lots of opinions about who they are or what they want, but you can see it firsthand in this video. These are the ones lying destitute on the road, and we must be the Good Samaritan. As team leader Dan Stephens shares, “We are the first faces they see when they land. Most of them have probably never met a Christian.” It’s our calling to show them the love of our Savior, and that is what many of you have helped us to do by your generous gifts.”
