In his Christmas greeting, LWF President Bishop Dr Munib A. Younan says that because we see in refugees the faces of Jesus and the Holy Family, our call for refugees today is strong: provide for their wellbeing, empower them for justice, strengthen them through education, welcome them into our countries, help them return to their homelands under a united, democratic political order, respecting human rights, gender justice, and freedom of religious expression.
