Together for the Family Update April 2025
“Our region desperately needs your prayers and support.” This is the heartfelt plea from our partner, Together for the Family (TFF). In the land where believers were first called Christians (Acts 11:26), Christians and other minority groups are enduring unbearable economic, religious, and social hardships. Syria’s collapsed economy and Islamist rule have forced millions to flee in search of safety. Many have sought refuge in Lebanon, a country grappling with its own deepening crisis.
At TFF’s center, a Christian man was interviewed. A man who had fled with his family from his hometown, Latakia, in Syria to Lebanon. When asked about how his relatives and loved ones were doing in Latakia, he lowered his head in sorrow and said, "Yesterday, my cousin was found murdered among many other bodies. He was just an ordinary Christian young man with no ties to the former regime or interest in conflicts. But it seems that nowadays, anyone who doesn’t belong to the extremist Sunni Islamic faction is at risk of being killed for no reason."
Together for the Family supports people with such heartbreaking stories, backgrounds, and fears. Amidst their suffering, Together for the Family embodies Christ’s love, serving the most vulnerable. They provide refugees with essential aid and equip them with skills to build sustainable livelihoods. Their programs focus on supporting families—offering parental training, financial assistance for education, and guidance to navigate social and economic challenges. Special attention is given to empowering women in their homes and communities.
A key way that you can support TFF’s work is by enabling them to organize a Trauma Camp this summer. At these camps, teenagers, especially girls, receive counseling to heal from past wounds and find hope. Many teens who participated in these camps are now actively pursuing vocational training through the Oasis program, gaining skills to secure their futures.
Your partnership is already making a difference in so many lives in Lebanon. TFF, with your help, was able to distribute fuel for heating to these families during the cold season. We encourage you to continue supporting Together for the Family as they bring light, healing, and hope for a better future to those in need.
