Refugee Team Testimony: Welcoming the Stranger – Part 1

Refugee Team Testimony: Welcoming the Stranger – Part 1

We at Grace continue to find ways to assist and encourage our new refugee neighbors who come to Wichita under the auspices of the International Rescue Committee, IRC.

This winter some of the warm coats you donated to Economy Corner could be helping keep a new neighbor from Africa warm. At Christmas time, many generous Wichitans bought gifts for individual refugee families.
