Happy Friday Oscar,

February was a month of tangible progress as our teams continued serving vulnerable Christian communities around the world. From strengthening food security and education in Kenya to launching new agriculture, medical, and vocational initiatives in Lebanon and Syria, each project is helping families build stability, dignity, and hope for the future.

Here are the highlights from February:

KENYA

Textbook Distribution:

Following the January 2026 support covering school fees, uniforms, and other necessities, our team returned in February to provide additional resources for students. A total of 300 textbooks were distributed across multiple schools, ensuring students have the materials they need to succeed academically. This reinforces our commitment to improving educational opportunities and outcomes for children in these communities.

Maize Harvest:

In late August 2025, we empowered 80 vulnerable farmers across Migori, Narok, and Kajiado counties with 250 kg of seeds and 850 kg of fertilizer. In February, the first harvest began, with 86 bags (90 kg each) already collected. This marks an important milestone, and we anticipate harvesting over 150 bags by the end of the season, 13.5 metric tons of maize. These early results demonstrate the impact of providing resources and training to help farmers increase food security and build sustainable livelihoods. More updates will follow as the harvest progresses.

LEBANON

Wheat Field Project:

Amidst the chaos of war, our team prepared a large wheat cultivation project on around 40 acres of land near five Christian villages in South Lebanon. The initiative will provide jobs for about 15 families and distribute grain to roughly 250 households, with some used for replanting or local bakeries. In total, around 1,800 Christians are expected to benefit, supporting both displaced families and those who have remained on their lands, despite the conflict, ahead of Lebanon’s March–April growing season.

SYRIA

Mobile Medical Clinic:

In central Damascus, our team launched a mobile clinic to serve displaced Christian families who fled their homes in the suburbs of Souweida. The clinic provides essential healthcare services to around 350 children and elderly residents, including blood tests, eye and ear exams, medication distribution, hearing aids, and free doctor visits. By bringing care directly to crowded neighborhoods, this initiative ensures vulnerable families receive timely medical attention, improving health outcomes and offering stability in the midst of displacement.

Cooking Sessions & Food Program:

In Damascus, our team launched cooking sessions and a food program to support displaced Christian families. Around 50 women, many of them widows, received hands-on training from experts to prepare foods that can help them start small businesses and generate income for their families. In addition, the program provided daily meals for approximately 250 displaced Christians over the course of a week, ensuring immediate nourishment while empowering women with skills for long-term economic stability.

That wraps up this month’s Updates From The Field!

Thank you for being part of this mission. Your prayers, encouragement, and generosity make these efforts possible and allow us to continue standing alongside vulnerable communities around the world, especially those facing severe conflict at the moment.

Together, we are helping families meet immediate needs while building stronger, more sustainable futures.
