  1. I've been visiting a local refugee center, helping them with books from the used bookstore where I work. Their needs are broad & the center holds classes, has free medical & dental care, a teen room for help after school, a pre-school. This particular area helps many that are from Africa, but the farming idea is new to me. I will ask. Yes, Irene's & Charles' book is wonderful, a great one to give. Thanks, Joyce.

    1. It is so wonderful, Ruth. Their presence certainly brings refugee issues very close to us. Our church looks forward to supporting their efforts and learning from them, as well.
