Shelter From the StormCaring for the Victims of Kosovo
Author: Bruce D Thompson**Winner of the Anne Frank Award for Moral Courage** Shelter from the Storm tells the story of a refugee centre in Manchester during and after the 1999 Kosovan conflict. It is a vividly engaging and moving account of how a comfortable suburban church became deeply involved in the shattered lives of the Kosovan Albanian families who had experienced 'Ethnic Cleansing'. It documents, through Christian eyes, the emotional, psychological and spiritual costs of all involved ' and the author's own journey from his involvement with the victims of atrocity, and his hope for a future beyond suffering. Shelter from the Storm is a moving, beautifully written book about commitment to a noble cause, the costs involved and the hopes that are engendered when an otherwise comfortable community cares for the stranger in their midst.
