Opportunities Abound. The Children’s Center has been full of lots of excitement this summer. The program moved into a new building specifically set up for the children earlier this year. This building offers the kids a consistent place to come each week where they know they are loved and valued. Our team, loving on and teaching the children, work hard each week to present lessons and fun activities that teach letters and numbers. However, the children are not only learning the basics they need for school but also have opportunities to hear Truth from their teachers. The team sings songs about God and teaches stories about who He is. Because of your generosity, these children learn, grow, and experience love. In addition, you are reaching into these children’s homes as the staff invests in the parents by visiting each family home.
Reaching Beyond Children. Our team is building relationships within the community and is respected by the whole neighborhood because of their investment in families. We also engage various volunteers from the U.S. who have a passion for helping children in this region. American teams visit, spend time with, and teach the children. We are grateful for the support of faithful partners who make this program successful.
Join Us in Prayer:
Your partnership in this project allows us unprecedented access to the lives of displaced Iraqis and Syrians. Your gifts are meeting the needs of countless individuals and families who have faced incredible hardships, many of whom are uncertain of the source of their next meal. In addition, your generosity allows us access to these homes where the Lord has used us to share His good news with the majority of these families. Even though there are still so many needs in the displaced community, many have now heard of the hope and peace offered in Jesus Christ.
Today, because of your prayers and support, we have the blessing of discipling many new believers who previously had not heard of the salvation Christ offers. We have the joy of seeing them labor with us for the sake of the gospel. Additionally, we are working with many individuals and families who desire to hear and know more about following Christ.
Please join us in prayer:
God is using your faithfulness to open more doors for the gospel. We have gained access to new communities through the food, medical, and mobility equipment distributions. Additionally, community leaders have expressed a desire for mental health programs, children's education, and community development projects to improve their people's livelihoods. These projects meet the people's short-and-long-term needs and allow us into the surrounding communities. The relationships we have established give us the freedom to share the gospel and begin discipling those interested in knowing more or who have put their faith in Christ.
Thank you for coming alongside us in this work. Your prayers and gifts are truly impacting lives, and we ask you prayerfully to consider making another gift so the work can continue to bear fruit. We're glad you are part of our global team!
North Africa and the Middle East is consistently thrust into the international news as it develops into one of the world’s most enigmatic-but-influential global regions. Vast economic development typifies its urban centers, offering creative business opportunities for entrepreneurs.
Religious life permeates every society here, whether its residents are Muslim, Christian, or Jewish. Though Christianity began in this cradle of civilization, it is sometimes difficult to know if the church exists. Cities that birthed the gospel now house ornate mosques, temples, and skyscrapers. Thankfully, the church is experiencing a captivating resurgence among this region's 520 unengaged and unreached people groups.
Millions of refugees live here, displaced by war, famine, oppression, or poverty. Many are open to the gospel, seeking an anchor amid the upheaval of their lives. Pray for Christian workers as they share the hope of the gospel during this unprecedented spiritual openness.
