[Episcopal News Service] The Joel Nafuma Refugee Centre is the only day center in Rome available to refugees. The ministry, dedicated in 1995 and located in the crypt of St. Paul’s Within the Walls Episcopal Church, provides a sanctuary for refugees to seek advice and assistance. The center offers breakfast, distributes toiletries and items of clothing, and provides services for refugees to learn languages, computer skills, and watch news bulletins from around the world. The center is run entirely by volunteers from many different faith communities.
