Zahlé, Lebanon 2025
This summer, I am excited to share that I will be embarking on my next mission to Lebanon as part of further evangelical work. From July through August, I will be serving alongside Freedom House International (FHI) and their ministry partners to assist with outreach and evangelism efforts, conduct home visits, and support refugee ministry. This mission is particularly significant as it focuses on the 10/40 Window — a region of the world where access to the gospel is limited and where many are in need of spiritual and physical hope.
Now, more than ever, it is critical to share the gospel in Lebanon. The country is facing immense challenges, including economic instability, political unrest, and the ongoing refugee crisis. These conditions have left many people searching for hope, peace, and purpose. Lebanon, though historically significant, remains one of the most spiritually unreached areas in the world. According to recent statistics, less than 1% of the population identifies as evangelical Christian, while approximately 61% of the population follows Islam and around 33% identify as Christian, predominantly from traditional denominations. Furthermore, Lebanon hosts over 1.5 million refugees, making up nearly a quarter of its total population, with many living in poverty and without access to adequate resources. These realities highlight the urgent need to share the gospel and provide hope to those who have yet to hear the message of Christ. This is an opportunity to bring light to a place where darkness and hardship often prevail.
Our journey will begin with team members flying into Dulles or JFK International Airport before traveling together to Zahlé, Lebanon. Once there, we will partner closely with local ministries to build relationships, share the gospel, and support those in need, especially among refugee communities. This work aligns with the mission of Freedom House International, which seeks to bring the message of Christ to the most unreached and vulnerable parts of the world.
While in Lebanon, our team will be working directly with Warm Hearts Cold Houses, a ministry that serves Syrian refugee families who have been displaced due to conflict in their own country. Many of these families live in refugee settlements and struggle to find work and adequate resources. Our work will focus on evangelism, discipleship, and support for vulnerable families. Specifically, we will be ministering to children in two schools that provide free education and Christian discipleship.
In order to participate in this life-changing mission, I am currently fundraising $6,000. This total includes airfare, housing, food, and all logistical costs required to serve on the ground. While this amount feels significant, I trust in God's provision and the generosity of those who feel led to support this ministry.
If you feel called to partner with me financially or through prayer, I would be deeply grateful for your support. Your contributions will help not only to send me to Lebanon but also to make a lasting impact on the lives of those who will hear the gospel and experience the love of Christ through this mission.
Thank you for considering being a part of this journey with me. Together, we can bring hope, healing, and truth to Lebanon and beyond!
