A local Unto® staff member, Martha*, met Francis at a clinic for refugees in the Middle East. During these clinics women receive lifesaving critical aid, basic health training, and hear about the eternal hope of Jesus. As a refugee Francis endured a lot in her lifetime. She fled her home country due to war, leaving everything she owned behind. She lives in a makeshift tent within a refugee camp and often feels hopeless. In her new country refugees are not permitted to work. So she completely relies on the humanitarian aid provided by people like you. As Francis’ physical needs were met, her heart softened to the message of eternal hope in Jesus. She began praying and even had a dream about Jesus. In her dream Jesus offered her a drink of water that would give her healing — the new life she longed to experience. Martha helped Francis understand the new life that Jesus gives. She gave Francis time to think and process. A few weeks later when Martha visited, Francis announced that she was ready to respond. The two women prayed together, and Francis gave her life to Jesus! That is the difference your gifts make. When you give someone a Survival Kit — filled with the critical aid they need to survive — you meet their immediate physical needs. And you give our local staff members opportunities to build relationships and share the eternal hope of Jesus at the right time. *Name changed for security purposes. |
