The Forgotten Refugees. Syria's Christians In Turkey

Dozens of Syrian refugees have been living in part of the church grounds in Eski Kale Kuyu, Tukey, some for over two years. The church of Morcercis in the province of Mardin has provided shelter, food, water and eduction to families living on the church grounds. There are several new families who now occupy the church grounds who came from Mosul, Iraq which was overthrown by the Islamic State. The Christian community is a monitory in Turkey and often feel like they are discriminated against. Many want to leave Turkey and live in a Christian country but feel all of the aid goes to the majority Muslim population. (Photo by Gail Orenstein/NurPhoto)
