According to a report from Mission Network News, in the last 18 months, over 140 refugees living in the City of Refuge have converted to Christianity after fleeing Fallujah, which was overtaken by ISIS and later liberated by Iraqi forces. Frontiers USA president Bob Blincoe told the outlet that now, some of the new Iraqi Christians want to go back to their homes and share their newfound faith with their neighbors, families and friends. "They are attracted to go home because that is the place they knew as where they lived their lives," said Blincoe. "And there's no future for them in the refugee tents in the City of Refuge."
