Awareness Week 2011 - Hurt ... Home ... Hope

Burundi and Sudan

 

When refugees settle in your land with you, you are not to harm them.  Refugees who live with you must be treated just as if they were native-born like yourselves, and you are to love them as you love yourselves. 

Leviticus 19:33, 34a
