The other day when someone was sharing about Christmas, they pointed out that Mary and Joseph had to flee with Jesus to Egypt shortly after he was born. You won’t see it on a Christmas card, but Herod was on the warpath like a wolf circling the nativity scene, and an angel had to intervene to warn them.
Let’s remember the needs of modern-day refugees this Christmas and perhaps see Jesus ‘in the least of these’.
The plight of refugees in Australia has been grim for a while; thankfully, things have improved this year, and we are particularly interested in a new community sponsorship opportunity for people who want to make a difference. The program is called CRISP, and we have included details below.
