The Middle East is the cradle of Christianity. Indeed, it is the birthplace of Judaism, Islam, and Christianity. To this day the Middle East bears the richness and strife of these major faith traditions as these cultures face the challenges and threats of secularization. The Presbyterians have twenty mission personnel working with ecumenical and interfaith partners in the region. Gifts to this account assure a strong mission connection through our mission co-workers in the Middle East. |
