What motivates "ordinary people" to support refugees emotionally
and financially? This is a timely question considering the number
of displaced people in today's world is at an all-time high. To
help counter this crisis, it is imperative for the Canadian
government to determine which policies encourage volunteers to
welcome asylum seekers, and which ones must be reviewed. Ordinary
People, Extraordinary Actions relates the story of the St. Joseph's
Parish Refugee Outreach Committee over its thirty years in action,
revealing how seemingly small decisions and actions have led to
significant changes in policies and in people's lives-and how they
can do so again in the future. By helping readers-young and old,
secular and faith-oriented-understand what drives individuals and
communities to welcome refugees with open hearts and open arms, the
authors hope to inspire people across Canada and beyond its borders
to strengthen collective willingness and ability to offer refuge as
a lifesaving protection for those who need it.
