2008 Lilly Scholar Stephen Riley

“I finished my Masters of Arts at Western Seminary (Portland, OR) in 2018 and have relocated to Erbil which is in the north of Iraq. Here I serve as the General Manger of a Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) called The Mustard Seed Foundation overseeing projects that promote capacity building for locals, supports local churches, and offers aid and counseling to refugees in the country. We have been here for 3 years now. I live here with my wife, Annelisa, and three children (Jonah 7, Delphia 5, and Audrey 4 months).”
