The longest drought in
the Horn of Africa has driven thousands of people from their homes. Relief
efforts continue as the over 11 million people affected work to rebuild their
lives and livelihoods. For many this path has led them to a refugee camp in search
of food, water, security and a chance to move forward.
As a church called and
equipped to do God’s work in the world, the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America
(ELCA) is helping those affected by working through our partners on the ground
and local personnel in the refugee camps.
