Ohio Woman To Work With Syrian Child Refugees

A Vandalia woman is leaving later this month to serve as a missionary in Syria. Laura Adamson was selected by the group Iris Relief to lead its children's outreach program on the Jordan-Syria border. Adamson is a career missionary who will work with child refugees of the Syrian conflict. She says she has been given a gas mask and rigorous training to handle the unstable situation.

Jim has been with WCBE since 1996. Before that he worked as a reporter at another Columbus radio station, and for three newspapers in Southwest Florida.
