Letter: How would an Afghan refugee fare in your church?

RE: How would an Afghan refugee fare in your church?

Your question, “How would an Afghan refugee fare in our church?” is critical in assessing the health of any church. And the question begs another question.

Not only would they be welcome, but are we willing to go where they are with food, clothing, furniture and basic needs? Are we willing to take them by the hand and bring them to worship with us?

It is world missions right at our doorstep.
