Building Refugee Churches
Oct 18, 2021
- Tom Albinson

IAFR has been providing building materials for refugee churches for many years. We understand the harsh climate requires a durable building for Sunday worship and all sorts of other ministries during the week. But the truth is, many refugee churches still meet under trees in the camps.
We helped build 12 refugee churches so far in 2021!

Churches play a critical role in keeping hope alive in the midst of adversity and uncertainty. So by investing in these faith communities, we are helping them provide safe and supportive community, a life giving worldview, and a place where people can begin to heal from the trauma of forced displacement.
