Why We Do What We Do

Jesus declared that the second greatest commandment, was to love our neighbor as ourselves. As faithful followers of Christ, we take this commandment very seriously. Our commitment to Jesus and his words are the sole reason we do what we do. As the Apostle Paul stated, “If we are “out of our mind,” as some say, it is for God; if we are in our right mind, it is for you. For Christ’s love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died.” (2 Corinthians 5:13-14)

We have chosen to love these girls and have chosen to dedicate our lives to the Middle East, because Christ’s love compels us to do so.
