PROJECT ETERNAL LIGHT
In a month’s time we will once again travel to Lebanon and Syria to be with, and support our beloved family in Christ. And friends, we desperately need your assistance. Not for us personally but for those who faithfully bear light in one of the darkest regions on earth. Please take a moment and read this project proposal. Please share it with your fellowship and family of believers. This is truly a unique opportunity to be part of what God is doing in this region. We simply cannot do it without friends like you.
SYRIA: A voice in the storm
Syria, after more than a decade of war, finds itself undergoing profound political, cultural, and social transformations.

On Tuesday, 31 January 2024, Ahmed al-Sharaa (alias Abu Mohammed al-Golani), advanced his commitment to minority rights by meeting with senior Syrian Christian leaders in Damascus.

This significant juncture required three key components, which can also serve as valuable reminders to the Western Church as we approach 2025—a year that promises both opportunities and challenges.
10 LESSONS FROM SYRIA: when faith is under fire

THE ROSE OF SYRIA: A time to strengthen the local Church

NO, SYRIA HAS NOT BEEN LIBERATED: a time for courage
No, Syria has not been liberated. Terrorists do not liberate, they enslave. The Syrians need courage, more than ever before. Courage to endure, to persevere and to survive. But the passive bystanders from the outside world also needs courage, but a different kind of courage.
