World Refugee Day report features our friends-in-mission at Partners

I'm asking everyone here, in the Tall City and across West Texas, who has visted the refugee camps around the world, or has worked to welcome international refugees to our community and helped them settle into their new homes ... please help spread the word about today, and add the world's refugees and refugee issues to your prayer lists ... thanks!

Ethnic groups have been clashing with Burma's government since the country gained independence in 1948. Many people only know life as a refugee; they've never had a safe place to live.

Steve Gumaer and his wife, Oddny, started Partners Relief and Development in 1994 after seeing the plight of Burma's refugees firsthand.
