Help Plant Gospel Seeds in Syria
In a country in economic shambles from war, workers providing aid and emotional support have many opportunities to share Christ.

Workers need donations of $50 or $100 to plant gospel seeds and form such disciples. Pray for support and spiritual renewal for workers facing the same bleak realities of a war-ravaged country as those they’re serving.
