The World is Watching the Wrong Story

The church in the Middle East is growing. New believers are coming to faith. Communities are being transformed. And right now, it needs partners.

A Growing Church Facing Real Pressures

Unprecedented growth has brought unprecedented need. The church in the Middle East is expanding faster than its resources can keep up—and that gap has consequences.

Leadership Shortage
Rapid growth means churches are multiplying without trained pastors to shepherd them.

Persecution Pressure
New believers—especially those from Muslim backgrounds—face isolation and real threat.

Theological Poverty
Quality Christian education in Arabic barely exists. Believers who hunger for depth have almost nowhere to turn.

Human Crises
Poverty, displacement, and trauma are daily reality for millions. The church wants to respond but lacks capacity.

Limited Capacity
Local churches want to serve their communities but need resources and training to do so.

Without intentional support, this moment of growth could stall. A historic opportunity quietly closes.

THREE AREAS OF MINISTRY

How We Work

 

Inclusive Education

Christian School (BBS)
Special Needs (SKILD)

We train the leaders the church urgently needs and educate the next generation — from seminary graduates returning to serve across the region, to 1,400 students hearing the Gospel at Beirut Baptist School.

Church Discipleship

Theological Training (ABTS)
Arabic Publishing (DMAH)

We walk alongside believers, strengthen local churches, publish theological resources in Arabic, and serve children with special needs — demonstrating that the Gospel is both word and deed.

Community Development

Humanitarian Relief (MERATH)
Salt & Light

We partner with local churches to serve vulnerable families across Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, Iraq, and Sudan — providing food, shelter, medical care, and job training. Families move from crisis to stability.

That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither— whatever they do prospers.

Psalm 1:3

WHAT’S AT STAKE

With You. Without You.

With partners:

✓ Trained leaders shepherd growing churches
✓ New believers find community and stay
✓ Families in crisis find stability and dignity
✓ The Arabic-speaking church is equipped to lead
✓ Sustained momentum in the land where Christianity began

Without partners:

✗ Momentum stalls — churches multiply without shepherds
✗ New believers face persecution alone and fall away
✗ The theological gap widens without Arabic resources
✗ Families in crisis go unserved
✗ The world keeps telling the wrong story about the Middle East
