Sudanese people within reach!

This past weekend I attended an SIM fellowship in Dallas.  I have the opportunity to meet two gentlemen from Sudan.  It was such a blessing. My heart seemed to swell and make space crowded in my chest--a physical/emotional reaction that tells me my prayer for God to fill me with love for the Sudanese before I get to Sudan-- has begun to be answered. 


These two gentlemen came to the US as refugees about ten years ago.  They are believers and attended the SIM event with one of their pastors. I am so grateful for the opportunity to shake the hand of people from the nation God has called me to love. They were warm and friendly and had gentle eyes in spite of the atrocities they have experienced.
