Well, we finished our first day in Moria Camp. God was gracious as we saw answers to specific requests for safety in travel and no "carsickness" when we arrived. It was our first time in Moria for all of us and to be honest, we were all a bit anxious based on the several news reports we had heard. Again, God graciously took over and as we settled into our third shift responsibility of guarding the gates into the family unit, we were to only let in individuals with proper wristband id, we found several opportunities to talk with Refugees. The camp slowly settled in to sleep and we found ourselves prayerfully watching over the camp with a few people wandering through the night. We left to travel safely back to our rooms for sleep, then a great dinner together and off to a worship service together.
Tomorrow we return to Moria on the day shift. It is reported to be an historic day because of the EU/Turkey agreement which may see several of the refugees being forcibly removed from camp and sent back to Turkey for further processing.
Please pray for safety again tomorrow. Pray for discernment in our working and that we will be true to our mission, to be the Hands/Feet of Jesus in the camp.
Thank you so much for your prayer support!
The April Team!
