Henry Neufeld - “Advent and Refugees”
Sermon Recording: Download
TOPIC
Henry Neufeld (PGIMF member and former member of the Canadian Immigration and Refugee Appeals Board) spoke about the time of waiting in Advent, a theme common to refugees around the world, who also wait in hope. As an interlude, Frieda Epp pointed out the elements in her painting based on the lyrics of the hymn If the War Goes On which we sang as a congregation. We saw slides about refugees from the time that Henry and his wife Tena worked for MCC in Thailand. Will we do as the Bible says in Leviticus 19:34 and treat the foreigners living among us as native citizens, and love them as ourselves? [KH]
