Watch Video: Bethlehem This Christmas
In Bethlehem, Christians, like Pastor Khoury, help their communities cling to their faith despite daily persecution and hardships. This Christmas, your generosity can go even further. A donor will match every gift, so your $50 donation will provide food baskets for two struggling families instead of one. “These baskets remind us that God provides through His people. We may live in hardship, but our hope is in the Lord.” Will you help bring hope to Bethlehem this Christmas?
For such a time as this, will you stand in the gap for Bethlehem Christians?
