Critical aid came at just the right time to struggling families.

On August 4, 2020 a massive explosion — of nearly nuclear proportion — riveted the bustling city of Beirut, Lebanon. At least two hundred people lost their lives, thousands more were injured, and nearly 300,000 were left homeless.
One little girl named Amira*, stood out to our staff members. She was among those whose families received the critical aid people like you helped supply. As Syrian refugees they live in a refugee camp outside of Beirut — where many other refugees, who lived closer to the explosion site, were forced to relocate.
Amira’s family received tarps for shelter, clothing, and meals. They were so grateful for the items and wanted to help others receive them too. Amira’s father helped our local team members carry supplies over to a distribution site while she and her siblings waited in his truck.
In another part of the city, Hasan saw our team members distributing meals. He stopped and asked, “Are you helping families that are struggling? Because my family is struggling.” Our staff members took meals to Hasan’s home, which had been damaged by the explosion. They told his family,
“The reason we do what we do is because we have Jesus in our life, and we want to share Jesus’ love.”
A few days later Hasan saw our team again. This time he introduced them to another family in need. As our team members provided them with critical aid and shared the hope of Jesus, Hasan listened intently. Our team members were privileged to hear him declare that he wanted to follow Jesus, and they will continue to follow up with him.
Your support helps meet people’s physical and spiritual needs — providing them with critical aid as they rebuild their lives and giving them opportunities to hear about the hope of Jesus.
