Fr. Ben was able to chat with Kamel during his visit last year to Iraq. Kamel has a very humble furniture reupholstery business but it is enough to support his family of 3 after they returned. After fleeing from ISIS, you helped his family return and re-establish their roots. God bless you!

God bless you for helping them!
