Facing jail for saving lives: Sarah Mardini and Séan Binder volunteered as rescue workers for an organization in Lesvos, helping spot boats in distress at sea and helping refugees who were fleeing abuses in their home countries. Now they face up to 25 years in prison.

I am so thankful for his kind heart; I too was a Vietnamese refugee whose family drown and died right on front of me; my family 13 people and the rest of 130 plus people were trapped in the sinking boat by Malaysia because we were not allowed to go on shore the day prior. Only 5 children in our family-aged 11 to 14 survived. I am sad that the criminal charges were against him and others who did God's works. Regardless what they are, I pray God's protection and will for Sean. I am so honor that his love, compassion, unconditional love came from the pain of Vietnamese boat people. May the Above blesses you for serving Him
