The economy in Lebanon is really struggling and inflation is spiralling out of control (food prices have risen by 400% in a year!). Please pray for the situation out there, as well as the children we serve and their families, not to mention our staff.
1. The deteriorating situation in Lebanon
With Lebanon having to cope with an economic collapse, COVID and the after effects of the explosion, please pray for the deteriorating situation out there. Inflation is soaring, with those on the edge of society feeling it the most (food prices have risen by nearly 400% in a year).
Here is a helpful 4 minute video from the BBC showing how difficult things are out there.
2. Our outreach work with refugee mothers
Please pray for our work as we witness to the impoverished Syrian refugee mothers we serve, some of whom have come to know Jesus.
Here is an inspiring video of our Country Director interviewing one such lady (6 minutes).
3. Protection for our staff and the children
Please pray for the children and staff - that they will know God's peace and provision in these difficult times. Please also pray for protection against COVID, as we have had a few cases in recent weeks.

It is so good to be able to call on you for prayer support like this: "being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind." (Philippians 2:2). Thank you so much for your prayers, we really do appreciate them!
