You remember the incredibly-tasty looking cheese offered by Antoine Khoueiry's Montana Farm, one of the businesses we supported w/ Giving Tuesday 2yrs ago and has been thriving? Well, they have secured their refrigerated truck but have some funds leftover (praise God) and would like to put the remaining funds towards the required equipment to manufacture Mozzarella cheese, which will enrich their product line. We said yes! Your Giving Tuesday gift just keeps on giving, even 2 yrs later, helping a business continue to grow and thrive in Lebanon where things are so hard!

We have some good news from a couple of the businesses you have helped in Lebanon where things are very tough. The dairy business outside Beirut of Antoine Khoueiry and his son, with several employees, is doing well, thanks to the dairy truck that last year's Giving Tuesday bought for them.

I returned last week from Beirut, travelling with a member of the Board of Nasarean. The country of Lebanon and its brave people, are suffering greatly as a result of economic collapse, the almost total corruption of politics, regional rivalries, and emigration. The Christian community is dwindling because of all these factors, plus the malign influence of Iran, which has created a state within a state in Lebanon. The average salary has dropped to $70 a month, power is off 22 hours a day and people cannot afford fuel or medicines. Nevertheless, in all these hardships, the people are fighting. We saw most of the businesses we are supporting, through your generosity. Today we see some pictures of the dairy business called Montana Dairy, outside Beirut. Despite all the hardships, they are providing a livelihood for 4 people.
