Refugee Crisis and Syrian Refugee Family

talking to children: These girls, all under the age of 10, decided to donate their entire savings to the cause, according to The Chronicle Herald. This column was going to be about talking to children about the refugee crisis. The night before, we had helped host a dinner at our church to raise money to sponsor a Syrian refugee family. But as I thought about these girls, I remembered that kids often understand the heart of these matters better than adults. They’re quicker to want to help. They’re less distracted by politics and prejudice. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
