Kinship United makes room for Sudanese Refugees during the latest Refugee Crisis

ROLLING MEADOWS, Ill. - July 27, 2016 - PRLog -- On July 8^th violent outbreaks began between two of South Sudan's prominent tribes. Since that day more than 300 people have died and 42,000 Sudanese refugees have left their homes and headed towards Uganda. Kinship Churches in Uganda have seen this as an opportunity to love their Sudanese neighbors and are preparing to welcome them into Kinships and provide for their basic needs of food, shelter, and medicine.

It's estimated there could be over one million Sudanese refugees from this conflict. Craig Muller, CEO and Founder of Kinship United comes to the situation with grace and hope, "We've seen this kind of situation in this area before. We've helped refugees find homes, and taken care of children who are lost and abandoned. We have the buildings, food, and medicine we need to care for people. God has given us the opportunity, now we just need to do his work."

Kinship United plans to care for the Sudanese refugees in three ways:

·        Kinship United will send food and medical supplies to a Kinship in Northern Uganda where the refugees are headed.

·        The Kinship will open a building in northern Uganda that will be used temporary housing for refugee families.

·        The Kinship plans to rescue children who have been separated from their families and set-up a family reunification program to help children find their parents. They will care for the children in a current Kinship Home until their families are found and they are unified.
