Steadfast - A Time of Refreshing Kurdistan-Iraq and Lebanon

The Churches throughout the Middle East are in a season of ongoing spiritual war amid intense physical war.


They need: A Time of Refreshing

A Time of Refreshing conference is a time of encouragement and strengthening for Pastors, Wives, and Leaders in the Middle East, through the teaching of the Word, Worship, Fellowship, and Prayer in a peaceful, secure, and restful atmosphere

Map of Middle East with Lebanon and Iraq circled.

Christian leaders in the Middle East live and serve amid war or its constant threat, facing continual danger from militant Islam and engaging in intense spiritual battles for souls. Despite these hardships, they  remain steadfast in spreading the Word, making disciples, and planting churches across their regions.


Servant-leaders from Lebanon, Kurdistan-Iraq, Iraq, Syria, Iran, Armenia, and Jordan will attend these conferences.


They remain faithful and steadfast in their ministries, staying in place even in the midst of persecution and despite stress and risk to their safety.


Their unwavering commitment shows why support for Steadfast is so important now.


They are weary.


In Mark 6:31, Jesus called His disciples away for a time of rest because they were exhausted. These disciples also need a "Time of Refreshing" to give them the rest and renewed hope they need to stay in the fight!


Join us in ministering to these courageous leaders in the Church in the Middle East.


FPI is committed to covering all transportation, lodging, meals, and conference expenses for three days, ensuring every leader can attend without financial burden.


Sponsor a Leader.


  • $300 sponsors one attendee
  • $500 allows a pastor and his wife to experience this life-changing time of rest and renewal.


The total cost of hosting both conferences in Lebanon and Kurdistan-Iraq is $55,000.


The conferences will be held late August and early September. Exact dates and locations will not be published for security.


Every gift—large or small—brings hope, encouragement, and strength to those who serve on the front lines of the Middle East.

The wars are taking their toll on everyone. For those involved in compassion ministries, it is not only emotionally and physically draining. There is also tremendous spiritual warfare in the Middle East that we face.
