Perhaps many of you recognize these pictures - perhaps you have recently seen them in a common Mennonite publication. Mennonite Mission Network's magazine "Beyond Ourselves" did a cover story on the New Roots for Refugees program - a program run partly by Catholic Charities of NE Kansas, where I work. My housemate, John, volunteers at the farm where the refugees spend their days toiling over their gardens, getting ready for selling at markets. This program is awesome, but I won't bore you with my version of it. I encourage you to check out the following links that have great information about this program:Article in MMN's magaine "Beyond Ourselves"
