Our neighbor is really good at helping the refugees and providing opportunities for us to do the same. She invited about seven of her refugee friend families that live in Salt Lake City to come up to Midway for the day. She pulls in all kinds of neighbors and their amazing talents and sets up a day full of workshop type activities. One friend teaches art, one does fairy gardens, one does a music camp, and at one house they play a big game of soccer. I was busy for most of the day, but got in on the tail end- swimming with everyone all together. Even though I couldn't be there, she invited my boys to play soccer and spend the day.. They LOVED it! The refugee women cook lunch for everyone and it's all quite the experience. These families' stories are pretty incredible. Glad my boys got a day of interacting and feeling that we are all children of God and we have so many similarities. It's important for us to watch out for one another.
