Prayers, please?
Kue Kue is a friend of a friend; she is Karen and lives in Boise, Idaho. She is from Mae La refugee camp, where she lived for about four years before being resettled to the US in 2007 with three of her children.
Her husband and four additional children have been lost in the paperwork of resettlement and have not been able to join her yet.
She took all the right steps and has legally come back for a visit. She’s in Mae Sot now, visiting her husband and kids. Her youngest was seven when she left and is now eleven!
How does this involve us?
We’re attempting to help. We admittedly have no power in the realm of resettlement, but we are at least going to meet with a caseworker and see where things went wrong and if there’s something they can do.
We’re meeting today at 2:00pm our time.
When it comes to paperwork, big bureaucracy, and refugees, things get very muddy. So we’re just praying for a miracle.
Praying. Trusting that He can move this mountain, too :).
We had a miracle here when a buried passport/visa application surfaced after 4 months 2 days before needed for a flight to Australia for a family occasion for our Associate Vicar Andrew. Not on the same scale I know in terms of need but prayers were answered for Andrew. He has been here with his wife and 4 small children for 5 years and I know how keenly they miss family and opportunity to be together for the special occasions. Like Stephen they have both grieved grandparents in the last 4 months. So at the last minute Andrew was able to go. I will pray 🙂
