From Outreach Foundation ... Mission Partnership Update

• Your gifts to the COVID-19 Emergency Appeal are making a difference … for Iranians in Turkey

With funds that Outreach supporters sent to the COVID-19 Emergency Appeal, we were able to send $2000 to assist Iranian converts in Turkey who are being equipped and mobilized to share the Good News with the Persian-speaking world.

An Outreach Foundation partner, based in Europe, is on the frontline of teaching and resourcing, via online platforms and periodic conferences, new leaders for the growth of Christ’s Church in unsuspected places. Of their “adult students” who live in Turkey, many are refugees there who escaped Iran due to persecution, having lost everything. Life for them in Turkey is acutely difficult, but even more so now since the outbreak of COVID-19:

Unemployment: Refugees have no right of employment and most often take black market jobs that pay very little. Due to COVID-19, many have lost even these jobs, and the little income they had. As a result, they are struggling to bring food to the table.

Lack of access to Health Care: Insurance that provided refugees with the most basic medical care has been stopped also. This means that some of these students who are unwell have avoided seeking medical treatment and are now in a critical situation.

After The Outreach Foundation sent funds, we quickly heard back from our partner:

We are deeply grateful for this generous gift from Outreach, especially given the financial uncertainty in which [the world] finds itself at this time. This gift was a poignant reminder of how the Lord moves beyond our expectations in providing for our needs. It goes without saying that we have been profoundly blessed by our partnership with Outreach over the years, and look forward to how this will deepen in the years to come.
