SOME HOPE FOR LEBANON

Our staff in Beirut are safe and well, and ask us to join them in praying that the ceasefire brought about by the UN resolution will hold. Jay Sagherian, son of John, our National Director there and his wife Nancy, has finished his year with YFC Northern Ireland's Y-One programme and will be trying tomorrow (Tuesday 15th) to get from London to Damascus by air, then home by road. This will be a far-from-straightforward journey because almost every bridge on his route home has been taken out by Israeli air strikes, so they also ask for prayer for that.
