How do we make choices  

We are regularly asked how we decide who we help and who we do not. There are so many people and there is so much need. We can’t help everyone. Unfortunately. But we know many newcomers and meet with them regularly. By being with them we also get to know others. For example, our friend from Zimbabwe told us that her friend from Sudan had ’dropped out’ of the asylum procedure and had to sleep now under a bridge with her two young children! You sometimes hear stories like this, but when you meet and get to know someone like that, the inhumanity of the system dawns on you in all its horror. Fortunately, we were able to do something for them. 

Our actions always arise from personal contact. Some people just walk straight into your heart, then it is very clear. But our feeling always guide our choices. We keep our ears and eyes open in contacts and intervene where we think it is necessary or desirable.
