1. SYRIAN REFUGEES IN EUROPE Samaritan’s Purse response to the Syrian refugee crisis

2. The journey from Syria to safety is a long one – 2,500 miles; like walking from London to John O’Groats 4 times

3. When they come off the boat they incur injuries; Sprained ankles, broken limbs as they scramble ashore. The very young and very old suffer dehydration and exhaustion, some are disabled. Samaritan’s Purse have acquired a van so that urgent medical cases can be transported to a safe reception centre. Left: Dan & Neil, SP staff, helping medical cases to safe transport

4. The refugees don’t want to leave the groups they are travelling with so we are are helping with vital medical aid along the road.

5. THE REFUGEES JOURNEY… Borders are closing as desperate refugees continue their headlong flight. Some are put into football stadiums and camps and don’t even know which country they are in. Samaritan’s Purse, working with local Christian partners along the route, provides food, water clothing, blankets and ponchos as the cold weather approaches.

6. BACKPACK DISTRIBUTIONS… The families can only take what they can easily carry so the goods we distribute are packed in robust backpacks

7. PLEASE HELP… Samaritan’s Purse, through the generosity of their donors are providing physical and spiritual support to those who have lost their homes, their jobs, everything. Please stand with us in prayer and giving so that we can do even more.
