After
an arduous trek to Lebanon, a Syrian refugee child sleeps in the
run-down building his family now calls home. Many children arrive from
Syria traumatized by the atrocities they have witnessed. A 5-year-old
Syrian girl who recently arrived in Beirut is still suffering from burns
she received when her house was set on fire when she was 7 months old.
“She is still suffering physically and psychologically,” the director of
a ministry based in Lebanon said. “Although she is 5, she can only
speak about 10 words.” The ministry helped the family pay for a doctor
and testing in several developmental areas; she still needs major speech
and physical therapy. The workers face more needs than the ministry’s
limited resources can address, but God is working, the ministry leader
said. “God is doing so much in Lebanon and Syria, and we give Him the
glory,” he said. “We ask that you continue to pray and lift our brothers
and sisters up in prayer, that the Lord would continue to use them,
keep them, and encourage them. They depend on God’s hand to be able to
extend hope, healing, and restoration.”
