The Bible Society in Lebanon has worked tirelessly to bring the love of Christ to victims of the one-month long Israel-Hezbollah struggle. Israel has begun its withdrawal of troops from parts of south Lebanon following the long hoped for truce.
Mike Bassous, General Secretary of the Bible Society in Lebanon, and his fellow workers in the country have faced the daily threat of rocket attacks and bombing raids over the last month to bring aid to some of the thousands of displaced people.
He described the situation as “quite disturbing”, adding, “we can only see one way out – through prayer”.
He added that the Bible Society in Lebanon had already distributed thousands of relief packages of food, basic medicines and blankets each costing around £12.
