Dear Friend, The stories coming from refugee camps in the Middle East are heartbreaking. Descriptions of countless refugees packed into overcrowded camps under horrifying conditions are enough to overwhelm anyone. Compassionate Christians cannot help but feel somewhat helpless in the face of such hardship. "What can I possibly do to make a difference? Where do I even start?" But you and I can make a difference! Please allow me to share what I have learned from Leila* and Amir* (names changed to protect their identities). They are two of our DPM-Middle East workers who traveled to a Syrian refugee camp in Lebanon this summer. Their story will encourage you that your prayers and gifts are making a powerful impact, bringing hope to places where hopelessness seems to reign. God Of Hope And Joy
"When we arrived at the camp, I felt overwhelmed," Leila said. "Endless rows of tents; thousands of refugees with little more than the clothes on their back. There was no water, no electricity, barely any food or medical facilities—the problems seemed insurmountable! What could we possibly do to help?"

Thank you! |
