Syrian Refugee Crisis

Syrian Refugee Crisis – You will have read in the December Mission Update of the serious situation in the Lebanon and the numerous number of Syrian refugees who are flooding in over the border. In December we learnt that Arthur and Louise Brown, working with the Hadath Baptist Church, are seeking to assist these refugees in three ways:

  • The provision of food or food vouchers and basic medical supplies to 80 families;
  • The launching of a Learning Support Project for refugee children, led by Louise, and
  • The welcoming into the church family over 100 refugees for Sunday worship.

Since December the Learning Support Project has been expanded with another class for class 7 & 8 students.

On Sunday the 2nd February next there will be a special offering to support this urgent need. Special envelopes including Gift Aid envelopes will be available.
