Ep 28 - Welcoming the stranger

“I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me.” Matthew 25:35

There are 22 scriptures in the Bible about welcoming newcomers from another land, but it could be argued that none resonate with MCC as much as that verse from Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount. “I was a stranger and you welcomed me”. Follow along as MCC Ontario sponsors a refugee family for the first time. 

Transcription here.

Discussion guide here.

Read the written story about the Salazar family and MCCO (includes photos).

Read about how MCC started the world's first refugee sponsorship program. 

Read about Bill Janzen's legacy in this work and how he recently received the Order of Canada for it.

Editorial assistance by Christen Kong
