Do you think refugee ministry is difficult? Rev. Chris Cashen breaks it down for us, giving us some helpful guidance from his experience with a Biblical perspective. Chris has been involved in refugee ministry for several years and is leading the charge in the OPC as he chairs the Committee for Diaconal Ministries' Refugee Ministry Subcommittee to help these strangers and sojourners.
