Christian evacuees from Syria have found momentary living quarters in Jordan, but their settlement wishes have been overruled by Western countries.

According to the Associated Press, some of the Syrian refugees had voiced their grievances but also want to remain unidentified for security reasons.

"Everyone sold whatever they owned in Syria in order to get here, so that we could apply for visas at an embassy. We were all surprised to be rejected on the basis that there was no reason for us to go to Europe. Their reasons were all false - nothing correct in them," said one Syrian person in exile.

Another Syrian refugee said that western nations, "were supposed to support us, and they were supposed to facilitate our immigration process as Christians, and I'm very sad that they haven't."

Approximately 70 Syrian families, who escaped the ferocity and civil conflict of their native country, are remaining in halls and extra rooms of an Assyrian church in the capital of Amman. Though the people are getting food, aid, and money from the church, they said the living environments are problematic and they do not have adequate heat to stay warm.

Christmas Day did not have the customary pleasure that Syrian refugees usually feel during the Holiday season. "I can't feel happy about Christmas while our country is bleeding," one migrant said.

Another evacuee said, "We are suffering a lot here. Our only celebration today was inside a church to pray to God to restore security and peace in Syria."

According to Jordanian representatives, more than 1.3 million Syrian refugees have fled President Bashar Assad's Syrian government since the start of the domestic warfare.

Syrians who have not left face pressures of their well-being from violence or possibly famine.
