Summer 2024: How it’s going
Dearly Beloved,
As we bask in the warmth of summer, we are reminded of the abundant grace and love that our Heavenly Father bestows upon us.
“For the Lord God is a sun and shield; the Lord bestows favour and honour; no good thing does he withhold from those who walk uprightly.” (Psalm 84:11). This season, we aim to only walk in his light, reflecting His love and grace in all that we do.
Now we are thrilled to share the highlights of our month and our upcoming events:
Missionary Training with a Team from Egypt
We recently hosted a dynamic missionary training session with a dedicated team from Egypt. This training equipped ,not only our members but members that came all the way from Syria and Egypt for this conference specifically, with valuable skills and knowledge to effectively spread the Gospel and serve communities in need (especially of Muslim backgrounds). The enthusiasm and commitment shown by all participants were truly inspiring.
Pentecost Day Celebration
Pentecost was a night to remember. With many churches from all over Lebanon, our meeting was filled with the Holy Spirit as we engaged in profound worship, heard touching testimonies, and participated in powerful prayers.
The atmosphere was electric with faith and fellowship, making it an unforgettable spiritual experience.
Who Am I Conference
Another enriching event was the “Who Am I” conference, led by an insightful team from Egypt. This conference focused on discovering our spiritual gifts and understanding our identity in Jesus Christ. It was a time of deep reflection and growth, helping us to better comprehend our roles within the Body of Christ.
Purpose Driven Conference
The same dedicated Egyptian team returned for the Purpose Driven conference. This event centred on living a purpose-driven life in accordance with God’s plan for us. Attendees left feeling motivated and empowered to pursue their God-given purposes.
Graduation Celebration
We had the joy of celebrating the graduation of 4 classes of our first-year students and pre-first-year students (Al Massira – Al Hayat LFodla). After our church meeting, we honored the hard work and dedication of these students across four classes. It was a joyous occasion filled with pride and hope for the future.
We are grateful for your continued support and prayers. Together, we can make a significant impact in our community and beyond. May God bless you abundantly for your generosity and involvement.
Warm regards,
