The people of Lebanon face a humanitarian crisis. The country’s financial meltdown — considered one of the worst in centuries — has left people struggling to survive. The pandemic, the Port of Beirut explosion, and the Syrian refugee crisis have caused even more misery. Unto® local staff teams strive to meet the needs of as many people as possible. In Beirut they consistently serve nearly 2,000 refugees and 450 survivors of the port explosion who are still trying to rebuild their lives. Our partners operate an organization that serves as a school, church, and humanitarian aid distribution point for Syrian refugees. Many children from nearby refugee camps come to the location for their education, and many of their families receive lifesaving critical aid. Amazing changes are taking place in the area. At school the children learn how to read and write. They are also learning to pray and memorize Scripture. Many of the children have responded to the message of Jesus. Each day at school the children take turns leading their class in prayer. They pray out loud together. As one child prays for something, the other children say together, “Ya rab, Yesu!” which means “Yes, Lord Jesus!” They are not quiet about it either. People can hear the classes yelling out all together, “Yes, Lord Jesus!” from 100 yards away. Families living in tents near the school can easily hear the children and their daily prayers. Despite the suffering so many people across Lebanon face, the lives of children and their families are being transformed by the help and hope you provide. |
