Evangelism & Missions

“This book tells us of a Brazilian PhD student, speaking Arabic to serve Syrian refugees in South Carolina. Reread that sentence and consider it for a moment. I’m humbled to learn from Jairo that Americans need not be afraid of refugees to our country because of the stringent precautions that our government requires two years of screening before they’re allowed to arrive. He bears the stories of his experiences with the fresh perspective of being a foreigner and traveler himself—able to empathize with these new Americans in ways that we need to hear.”
