The Above Ground Railroad

Many people move to Canada because they must. This book tells the stories of refugees who flee their country and find welcome in one of five Matthew Houses in Ontario and Quebec. Over the last 20 years the Matthew House Movement has grown from the vision of one woman who responded to Jesus' call to serve the needs of strangers in our midst. It's a compelling book that tells how individuals, churches and organizations work together to create holistic, sustainable ministries with those who are compelled to make a new home in North America.
