You won’t find the term “refugee” in the Bible. But the Word of God has plenty to say about people called “strangers” and “sojourners” or “foreigners” and God’s heart for them! This little boy had a head wound from a government attack on their village. The FAME partner medical team there treated, bandaged and cared for him!
Displaced Burmese are now living along the Myanmar/Thailand border – over 1 Million people now live along this nearly 1500-mile border who are displaced! One of your FAME partners is actively serving these Internally Displaced People – or Refugees. They build simple homes, (pictured here) and just do what it takes to live in this safe zone.
The Medical team with this partner helped this young mother who was bombed out of her home and had to leave her village deep in the valleys of the mountains (that’s her above looking back at her village). These refugees are in great need of help and hope. They have so much instability that this partner is building a permanent clinic that will impact generations on the border that will be central to 20,000 of these refugees who need this care. The goal is to build this quality Clinic, as a care center that will be a place of access to healthcare that will give access to the gospel! The good news of Jesus is spreading among these refugees, from FAME partner to patient, person to person, tribe to tribe – God loves the Refugee!
