A Summer in North Africa

Written By Emily Luttrull

In North Africa, our Field Partners operate a Community Center for the Arab refugee population. After months of preparations, renovations, and prayer, the Center is open and offering free resources or classes nearly every day of the week.

This summer, the Center has had:

  • Summer school for 25 kids

  • Arabic-English tutoring

  • Recycling projects

  • Art classes

  • Guitar lessons

  • Korean lessons

  • A women’s Trauma Course

  • Nutrition and Women's Health Symposium

  • Two medical outreaches

Over 300 people have been served through the Center this year, many of them being returning participants.

These programs and classes are part of a larger effort to build relationships with the refugee community. Elements of scripture and Christian faith are woven into many of these offerings, which prompt various questions from time to time. Home visits, especially those with women, often lead to deeper conversations and many people are expressing interest and asking a lot of questions.

This summer, the Uncharted family raised enough money to fully fund the refugee Community Center for an entire year!

Our Partners can continue to build on the work they’re doing in the community, deepening relationships and serving overlooked and unreached people. Thank you for giving, sharing, and praying!
