Halim is a Muslim-background believer who fled to Lebanon from a neighboring country when his family tried to kill him. After arriving in the war-torn country, he decided to visit a local hospital amid ongoing attacks. “I was able to pray for five people and seek the Lord for them,” he said. “And I had a wonderful conversation with a young Palestinian man. I shared with him how Jesus can give peace and comfort.” Another former Muslim, Salim, came to know Christ and has been persecuted in his Shiite town in the Beqaa Valley. Salim fled with his family after his town was bombed in the ongoing conflict but had nowhere to go. He stopped his car on the side of a highway and began asking the Lord for help. While there, his former pastor called, said the Lord put Salim on his heart and offered his family a safe place to stay.
