His evangelist father invited migrant workers home regularly, and the family would host no less than five workers on any given day.
Rev Samuel Gift Stephen, who as a child grew up sharing meals and sleeping next to the guest workers, received a Special Commendation (Leader of Good category) at the President’s Volunteerism and Philanthropy Awards on Friday (Oct 16) for showing the same grace to the workers.
Rev Samuel is the Lead Director of the Alliance of Guest Workers Outreach (AGWO) and Vice President of The Hope Initiative Alliance (HIA).
