In December 2025, FBCA raised $20,000 through the Global Missions Offering to support a Summer Long Assignment with Thimar LSESD in Beirut, Lebanon. Due to several factors, FBCA will not be able to send a church member this summer as originally planned.
In light of ongoing updates from Thimar regarding displaced families and relief needs related to the current conflict in the Middle East, the Missions and Evangelism Commission (MEC) approved a reallocation of funds. $12,500 will now support Thimar’s relief work through Beirut Baptist School and Arab Baptist Theological Seminary, with the remaining funds designated for continued partnership with Thimar in fall 2026. In addition, the MEC allocated additional funds, around $11,000, from the excess funds contributed to the offering.
If you have questions, please reach out to Pastor Jesse McCain.
