I am here in Amsterdam working with the Refugee Highway Partnership (RHP). The leadership of this partnership is meeting in this fabulous city to discuss strategies to work together better, as well as getting a better sense of the refugee situation here in Holland. This country has a large number of refugees that have been resettled here and thus a great opportunity to bring good news. This is a picture of me with Moses, a Nigerian who pastors one of the largest refugee churches in the city. He also has put together a Bible training school that is a partnership with a number of other churches in the area -- a good example of partnering. They are able to do together what they could not do seperately!
This is a picture of some of the apartment housing that the refugees are living in in one region of Amsterdam. Though the government gives some financial assistance, it is not much and the places are small for what often can be large familes.
