Your 2020 Year-End Gift Will Help Persecuted Iraqi Christians
You’re the answer to their prayers!
Dear Friend in Christ,
As 2020 draws to a close, I pray you will once again support our efforts to aid Iraqi Christian refugees — who continue to suffer and face persecution. If you’re blessed with the means to send a final tax-deductible contribution for 2020, please do so now.
Christians are still suffering deeply in Iraq. One of them is a young woman named Jasmine.
Jasmine lives in The Virgin Mary Refugee Camp in Baghdad. Before that, she lived in a Christian village in northern Iraq called Karamles. When ISIS arrived in Karamles just after midnight,
Jasmine, her sisters, and her widowed mother fled for their lives.
“We were terrified,” Jasmine said.
The historic Christian communities in the Nineveh Plain, known as the cradle of Christianity, were decimated during ISIS’s reign of terror. When Jasmine and her family tried to return home after ISIS was driven out, they found nothing but rubble.
“Everything in our house was destroyed. It was terrible,” Jasmine said. So they returned to the refugee camp.
“I don’t want to live in a refugee camp forever,” Jasmine told us. But before she and her family can go back to their home, there must be security: “We must feel safe.”
My friend, Iraqi refugees want to rebuild their homes, their businesses, and their lives in these historic Christian communities. But almost none of the international aid for Iraq is being used to support Christians.
YES, Susan, I want to help save and rebuild Christian communities in Iraq — and assist persecuted Christians like Jasmine by giving them nourishing food, housing support, education, and medical care. Please accept my tax-deductible gift:

“I think the world sees us as aid dependents,” Jasmine said, “but we are not.” Because of the destruction left by ISIS — and because of the persecution of Christians and other minorities that continues today— “We just don’t have opportunities to make our own living.”
Which is why I’m turning to you once again to aid our suffering brothers and sisters in Christ.
A final contribution from you before 2020 ends can go a long way toward helping us save and rebuild Christian communities in Iraq — and assist persecuted Christians by giving them nourishing food, housing support, education, and medical care.
Please give your best tax-deductible 2020 year-end contribution to American FRRME before midnight strikes on December 31.
