Connecting to the Current Reality of Refugees in Europe

Date recorded: 20 Oct 2016 | Speaker: Paul Sydnor

Description

The first half of the 2010 decade has seen a resurgence in refugees and migrants crossing from North Africa and the Near East into Europe. Driven by factors such as war, conflict, prejudice and poverty, refugees and migrants have been flooding Europe's borders.

What is the story on the ground and how can Christians respond in a balanced way that reflects God's love for the widow, the orphan and the stranger? 

This webinar first gives an update on the current reality of refugees and asylum seekers in Europe. Second, it touches on the issues that this reality raises and the important role of the church in these issues.
