Dave reports the situation remains tense and unpredictable in N. Iraq, however, the SGI teams are there, and the CSM schools opened on schedule. Response to SGI’s plea for humanitarian aid yielded over $140,000 that is now being used to provide basic needs for some of the 1.5 million refugees. Please continue to pray for the safety and work of the teams and Christians, and that the schools will make a difference in the future of the country.
