![]() Meet Gloria. She is a 6 year old refugee from the Democratic Republic of the Congo. She received this bouncy ball/seat from a 9 year old IWC volunteer. He outgrew it and was excited to donate one of his favorite toys. Gloria was bouncing in all of her glory on her front porch the minute she received the toy. ![]() An IWC client let it be known that he was in need of a bedroom dresser for one of his children. A donor supplied a dresser that was in need of some minor repairs. This IWC volunteer, from Grace, is using his wood working skills to repair the dresser before it was delivered. ![]()
Recently, a couple of local weekend farmers made a donation of fresh homegrown vegetables to the IWC. Many refugees grow up growing their own food or purchasing fresh picked produce from open air markets. Our American grocery stores do not always supply that fresh vegetable flavor. Fortunately, this wonderful donation will allow several of our refugee families to have a small taste of home!
When you pray for and support the IWC, you play a part in making children smile, houses feel like homes, and dinner bringing back good memories. You pave a path for strangers to become neighbors. You open doors for the Gospel of Jesus Christ to be shared. The work of the IWC could not be done without your prayers and support.
If you would like to see the work of the IWC in person, meet a refugee family, or volunteer some time to help an IWC client, please email Amanda Stutler. Here are some current volunteer opportunities at the IWC:
