In this episode, we delve into the profound narratives shared by Shawn and Susan Howie, as they recount their journey toward engaging with immigration issues, as a result of meeting Dr. Felecia Russell, when she was only 17 years old. Their experiences illuminate the necessity of providing assistance to newcomers, including immigrants, asylum seekers, and refugees, who often find themselves in precarious situations, devoid of adequate support. Throughout the conversation, a potent message emerges: we ought to be indignant when these individuals are neglected or exploited, as it is our moral imperative to extend compassion and aid. Ultimately, we explore how personal faith and community engagement can galvanize efforts to uplift those in need, challenging all to act in accordance with these principles.
