In this episode of The Brave Podcast, we continue our interview with Alena Orwin-Rogel. This is the final episode in my series with Alena. Just to recap, I’ve known Alena since elementary school. Through social media, we’ve been able to keep in touch and encourage each other as sisters in Christ. In 2018, Alena and her family were torn apart when her husband, Omar was deported to Mexico.
In our final episode, Alena talks about coming to grips with relocating her family to Mexico. She speaks honestly about her fear moving to an unknown place and leaving behind everything she ever knew to to reunite her family. I love the honesty and bravery Alena shares in this interview. Towards the end, you'll learn about a new opportunity for Alena and Omar, and how you can offer support.
I was nervous to share this story as immigration is a hot topic in our country and the views on it can be very polarized. But, when God tells you to do something, you must obey. I hope you will be encouraged listening to Alena’s story; her bravery amazes me and it was such an honor that she allowed me to talk to her.
This interview is a part of a three part series and this is the final interview.
Heads up, Alena is the mom to three beautiful children and you’ll be able to hear them playing in the background. It sounds like they were having a great time!
