Story
The massive blast that took place at the port of Beirut late in the afternoon August 4 left an important part of the city laying in apocalyptic ruin. The explosion was felt all the way to Cyprus. Many have died or been injured.
LSESD family of ministries is already assisting, through our local church partners, those affected by the disaster with emergency food, hygiene and shelter. Rehabilitation of homes and building repair for our school and Christian bookshop as well as local churches will be a massive undertaking and needs to start as soon as possible as 300,000 individuals have lost their homes and schools were due to go back in just 3 weeks.
Donating with Stewardship is really easy and completely secure. If you are a UK taxpayer, please confirm that you would like to reclaim Gift Aid on your donation. This will add 25p to every £1 you give. Thank you in advance!
Lebanese Society for Educational and Social Development
Founded in 1998, LSESD aims to strengthen the witness of the Church in Lebanon and the region through
1) Equipping the Church (Ephesians 4:12-13). Nurturing and training faithful women & men and developing context-relevant Christian resources.
2) Serving Society (Isaiah 1:17) as a practical reflection of our love for God through our love for our neighbor; addressing issues of poverty and vulnerability mainly through: i) Emergency relief and development; and ii) Inclusive education.
LSESD’s approach is a holistic integrated one that reflects the full meaning of the Gospel as Word and deed, and is made possible through LSESD’s family of ministries, each with its distinctive focus, be it leadership and/or resource development, emergency relief, community development, inclusive education, psychosocial support… with the Good News of the Gospel integrated in every aspect of who we are and what we do.
