| They fled Iraq after their family received death threats. Threats weren't enough so the man was shot twice, once in each leg. They arrived in America last year, following three very difficult years as refugees in Jordan. Untreated medical issues, PTSD, unemployed, little English; their prospects are not stellar. BUT when our family walked into their apartment yesterday, they loved us like long-lost relatives and lavished so much food (food they couldn't afford to give) on us that it was nearly embarrassing. How does one give hospitality like this? It's in their genes. These are a special people indeed! Thank God He has called us to serve them! |
