Halifa* lives in one of the poorest neighborhoods in Lebanon. Even before the port explosion that damaged her apartment building, she and her husband struggled to survive.

After the deadly blast Halifa reached out to our local Unto^® staff team seeking assistance. They visited her small, almost empty apartment and provided her with meals. They also shared about the eternal hope of Jesus.

A month later the team returned, bringing more supplies to help meet basic needs. Halifa was so grateful and began asking questions about faith.

The team shared about Jesus, the Bible, and how to pray. Halifa began praying for a job, and God answered her prayers.

The next time the team visited, she told them, “Since the day I met you, my life has completely changed. Thank you for introducing me to Jesus; thank you for bringing me into the truth. I am so happy and feel so blessed.”

That day Halifa responded to the message of eternal hope. And she has never looked back!

Unfortunately, Halifa’s husband rejected her after she became a believer. Although the cost was high, she boldly stayed faithful to Jesus.

She continues to attend a women’s discipleship group and is growing in her faith.

Your gifts help meet the tangible needs of people like Halifa — giving them courage to persevere in faith — despite the adversity they face.
