EiC: Haitians in Springfield

Christians might have local citizenships, but as the author of Hebrews 11 reminds us, our calling ultimately makes us ambassadors of another country – a heavenly one. There are times when, whatever our local political leanings might be, our duty to our true country demands that we stand as representatives of the love and justice of our God. Karen Harding, a minister and missionary to Haiti, brings one such occasion to our attention. She discusses the recent statements about Haitian immigrants in the US presidential debate and calls us to stand for vulnerable communities and against hate.
