INTERNATIONAL WIVES CONNECTION
We have many international students and scholars that bring their wives and children to the U.S. when they come to study or do their fellowships. If the wives are not students, they often feel lonely and isolated. Not able to study or work, they often are in their apartments and homes alone, or alone with their children day after day. Most of these women are used to be surrounded by family back home with lots of emotional and practical support. Perhaps in their home countries they had access to public transportation which allowed them to do all their shopping independently. Few U.S. campuses or cities have adequate mass transit. Another potential problem is that their command of English may not be good, and they get confused or embarrassed by intolerant salespeople.
So we want to come alongside international wives and their families, and help provide the friendship and support that they need to help make their time here one that gives practical support, warmth and love, and true friendship. You have heard - when mom isn't happy, no one is happy! So we can help both these women and their families as we reach out to them with love.
