It all began with a prompting from the Holy Spirit after reading Scripture and developed with a vision that knew we had to do something and ended with these precious refugees getting rescued!
As I type I weep because I met many of these people along with 7 other men from the Grace4Iraq Team . I saw their pain I hugged them and prayed with them. And we took the hope of Jesus to them. We told them that there was a group of Christians in Indiana who wanted to help them.
We told them that Jesus did the same for us and we wanted to do the same for them.
Now family by family is moving into apartments for 6 months and finding some dignity and hope.
Now a community is being built with rescued refugees who understand the Love of God. Now a church is being planted in the ashes of ISIS. Now Hope upon Hope is being poured out and Jesus is getting greater glory! Just a take a few minutes and look at what can happen when God's people rally together.
The rescue continues and hope is brimming in the war-torn country of Iraq! Thank you from the bottom of my heart! To God be all the Glory! Never underestimate what Faith, Passion, and God can do!

Thank you, Jim, for sharing this with us. I was sharing Grace for Iraq, as well as the blitz last weekend with a Nappanee friend today, who commented "That's what the Church is supposed to do!"
Blessings... Sara
