Welcome the Stranger | Margaret LeMaire | TEDxChristianHeritageSchool

Margaret LeMaire encourages us to step outside of our
boundaries and make inclusion a possibility. In this eye-opening talk, we learn how we can welcome the stranger through acknowledgment, empathy, and engagement. Passionate about transformative development, faith, and issues of justice, Margaret has lived a life of service, empowering people through a variety of means. She has taught biology and chemistry in a Congolese secondary school, was an administrative assistant/dispatcher for a humanitarian/faith based aviation program in Cameroon, DRCongo, and Ethiopia, tutored immigrants in English, and led a lay caregiving ministry serving hurting people. Currently, she continues to mentor refugees and serves as a financial and communication assistant for a local global impact ministry and for a Congolese Technical School, which empowers marginalized young men and women with marketable skills. She has a B.S. in biology from George Fox University and speaks French and Swahili. Margaret LeMaire has lived a life of service empowering people through a variety of means.
