MIDDLE EAST
Refugee Support/Outreach
Overview: The Middle East is an area rich in history and culture, but we often have a negative view of the area. The truth however is that the majority of people there are just trying to raise their children and provide for their families while suffering many hardships and upheavels. In fact, many are searching for answers and peace; the answers and peace they can only get through Jesus. We believe that the "fields are white for the harvest" there, and that the Lord is rapidly building and growing His church in those areas. We believe that we have been given a window of opportunity to bring the Gospel into these nations and to Muslim peoples.
Goal: Our ultimate goal will be to serve, love and spread the gospel to the people of that area.
Schedule: This trip usually lasts 10-14 days. Schedules will vary based on ministry needs at the time. Please contact the travel coordinator at Vision Beyond Borders for more information, 307-333-6545, or info@visionbeyondborders.org.
