Pope Francis Brings Ray of Hope to Greece's Refugees

“We ran away from my family because they tried to kill us,” says Eli. “We love each other, but our families are enemies.”

Eli, who preferred not to give her last name for safety reasons, escaped from Kabul, Afghanistan with her husband Mustafa. The 22-year-old told how they fell in love in Kabul and were secretly married. But then her father found out. “He tried to kill me and my husband,” she says.

So she and Mustafa, 27, fled Afghanistan.
