Weihnachten im Nordirak

 

Christmas in the refugee camp

As a result of our good contacts, the EMG was asked to help the refugees in the Kurdish areas of northern Iraq practically on the Christmas Day. Our Head of Mission F. Seidler went with a team from IGFM and MRZ Cottbus to the refugee area mentioned in December 2015. Under the responsibility of the IGFM and with the support of the Bundeswehr, 1,000 aid packages were distributed to those in need in those days.

The appropriate Bible text from Psalm 82, verse 3:

Do justice and maintain the rights of the afflicted and destitute.”
