We are circulating an urgent appeal from Dr. Khaled Leon, one of the key prayer leaders in the Middle East. He is a dear friend and with others will be taking tons of supplies to help the Iraqi Christians that have fled to Kurdistan for refuge from the ISIS killers that have taken over their cities and towns. Please consider providing some financial assistance to this relief effort. Dr. Leon's message and email contact is below.
Thanks for anything you can do to help our Iraqi brothers and sisters, praying and serving in this way.
John Robb / IPC Prayer
To the body of Christ world wide:
It was a great cry in the heart of Nehemiah, that led him to the King's throne to ask for help for his fellow brothers, sisters and families that were desperately surviving the catastrophe in Jerusalem, the city was turned into rubbles, people were hungry, sick and no shelters whatsoever, the pain that turned to fire in His heart consumed him, and gave him that gravity to ask for the King's help (Neh 1).
Nowadays as we watch the news of our fellow Christians in Iraq, living in in-human circumstances, thrown out of their own houses, because of their love to the Lord, no food, water, shelter or medicines, robbed of everything they owned and was driven out walking to the borders tens of kilometers on foot. Their cry is reaching the Lord, and it's time to stand up and like Nehemiah not only pray & fast, but as well, think of how to practically relieve their needs.
A group of us are traveling next week (week of 18th August 2014) carrying 5 tons of medical supplies, canned food, and we really need Tents (water proof), sleeping bags, mats, covers, as winter will soon be here, and their situation will be terrible as they are scattered in gardens, church halls, school playgrounds etc. They will also need clothes and shoes.
As you pray and fast, ask the Lord what can I do? may be you could send money or goods.
Talk to your pastor, and gather whatever Jesus would tell you, to be ready to be shipped to Kurdistan Iraq.
Please, contact us if you need further details.
Blessings,
Dr. Khaled Leon
