Friends of Refugees

Tomorrow I am going back to help tutor refugee children at Friends of Refugees. I went once last year. It's nerve-racking and amazing at the same time. It's nerve-racking because you have to help these kids with their homework and half of the time you don't know what you're doing! And you feel bad if you don't help them. You feel like you're hurting their education.
But it's amazing because you get to know these children from all over the world and they just love you like you're life's bread. Sometimes you even get the chance to talk to them about Jesus. A lot of the time these kids aren't raised in Christian homes. Last time I spent all afternoon with a little Muslim girl.
I feel so blessed to have this opportunity. I am sure we will go again before the school year is over. Maybe even two more times. I hope so. It really is an amazing experience. Let's pray God makes it meaningful for all of us.

With love and peace,
Sarah
