North Africa/Middle East Refugees in the Diaspora

Now in her third country since leaving home, Mariyam finally has access to a consistent level of healthcare necessary for the conditions ailing her. Having lost almost all of her family years ago when violence broke out in her region, including her spouse and young children, she now lives alone in a refugee camp, far from anything familiar. Struggling to learn the local language quickly enough to keep up with all her appointments and medical procedures presents a significant challenge. Recently, she asked some new friends why they have been so kind in helping her try to adjust to life there. They shared that the love they have overflows from the way their lives were changed by the love of their Father above. She has begun to meet together with them when they read the Bible in her heart language, and she has more and more questions each time. Pray that Mariyam will continue to be interested in hearing more about the source of the love and joy she sees in her believing friends. Pray that she will experience this same life-changing faith herself!
