In December 2025, we held Christmas services in Lebanon. These days became a time of God’s presence, challenges, and powerful testimonies of how the Lord is building His Church in the Middle East.
The services took place throughout the country — from Tyre and Sidon to Tripoli near the border with Syria. During the week, several meetings were held each day. Special attention was given to ministry among Syrian and Iraqi refugees who had experienced war and loss. We witnessed hearts opening to the Gospel, and after the services many people, with tears in their eyes, thanked God, saying that the Lord had spoken to them personally.
The beginning of the mission was marked by a serious trial: before traveling to Tyre, we learned about a recent rocket attack in that area. After prayer, the entire team unanimously decided to continue the ministry, trusting in God.
The Lord honored this obedience: a new church was opened in Tyre, and the first baptism was performed.
We are grateful to everyone who supported the ministry with prayers and donations — your support has brought hope, joy, and fruit for God’s Kingdom.
