Dear Friend,<\/p>\n

I’m sure you are no stranger to the conflict in Syria. Or to the fact children are the most vulnerable in any kind of man-made or natural disaster. Through One Great Hour of Sharing, you can help them<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As more families flee the violence, the Záatari refugee camp grows. It’s already the second largest refugee camp in the world where more than 3 in 5 refugees are children<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Their futures are slipping away. You can help change that<\/strong><\/a> When you give to One Great Hour of Sharing, you help make the world a more loving, peaceful, place.<\/p>\n

Your gift of $30, $50<\/strong> or however much you can afford could help our Presbyterian partners provide hygiene kits, bedding<\/strong>, support to health workers,<\/strong> provision of psychosocial counselors,<\/strong> and support for students <\/strong>to continue their education. Please give to One Great Hour of Sharing today<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Brothers and Sisters in Christ<\/strong>, when we act as one, we can do more for people in need than one can do alone. We’ve seen this truth in action in Syria and its neighboring countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
GIVE today to One Great Hour of Sharing<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

By faithfully supporting One Great Hour of Sharing, people like you are helping promote peace<\/strong> through our partners, the National Evangelical (Presbyterian) Synod of Syria and Lebanon and ACT Alliance, and provide emergency supplies to families who have fled. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Children are still in danger at home and in refugee camps. Families are still fleeing. There is no peace in Syria—yet.<\/p>\n

Please give to One Great Hour of Sharing today so children and families in Syria and around the world can know peace, safety, and the love of Jesus Christ.<\/a><\/p>\n

Your faithful giving is deeply appreciated. Together we’re sharing hope that is a witness to God’s love for all creation.<\/p>\n

Faithfully yours,<\/p>\n\"\"\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n

With his disciples during the Last Supper, Jesus prayed for oneness, connection, and unity (John 17:20—23). Perhaps he knew that understanding our oneness would be one of our greatest challenges as human beings. Give to One Great Hour of Sharing today and join others as we bring love and hope to those in need<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
