For these families, putting food on the table is a daily struggle. Alongside poverty, Christians face persecution and discrimination that can limit their opportunities to earn a living. Many rely on some of the lowest-paid work available, bringing home wages that barely cover the essentials.
High prices for food, fuel and everyday supplies are stretching those small incomes further. Now, unrest and disruption are adding to the pressure. Families are limiting journeys to work and essential shopping, while even travelling to Sunday worship has been interrupted.
Yet children still need to eat, elderly relatives still need care, and parents are left trying to make too little go far enough.
Our target is £1,800 to help provide food packages for all 50 families.
Please give what you can. Together, we can help these families meet an immediate need and remind them that their brothers and sisters in Christ have not forgotten them.
Please also pray for peace, protection and renewed hope for these families and our local partner.
To protect those involved, we are keeping their location and identifying details private. The pictures used are from a previous food distribution appeal in 2020.
A trusted local partner urgently needs funding to keep a refugee school open for around 40 displaced Afghan children, including girls who have no other access to formal education. A previous donor has unexpectedly withdrawn support. If we don’t step in, the school will close and these children—already traumatised by war—will lose their only safe learning space.
Please note: To protect the safety and privacy of the refugee children, all images used on this page are stock photos.
As well as local people wanting to know more about Jesus, there is also a need for support for local families. Therefore the building will be used for the local church and for reaching out to the local community with a focus on families, providing an informal education to children to get them prepared for more formal schooling.
The initial building phase will provide a shelter from the rain, with walls and a roof. Your donation can help to make this a reality.
