Opening of “Five Loaves and Two Fish” project
At a time where there is an increased need for outstretched hands to hold the mercy and love of the Lord; At a time where poverty and need grip our families. Our parish launched its new project “Five Loaves and Two Fish”
In fact, today our city (Aleppo) lacks everything. People suffer a lot. Long queues in front of bakeries, where people patiently wait for their turn to buy bread, which is often the only food they can buy. Every day we see unprecedented sights which we have not seen even during the harshest years of the war, besides the high cost of living where people cannot afford basic food there is a lack of electricity and gas, so it becomes impossible to cook anything at home.
This new project “Five Loaves and Two Fish” reminds us of the presence of Providence and its intervention in the life of every human being. The project offers a daily distribution of hot meals prepared every day for hundreds of people in need.
Despite the large number of poor families secured by the project, it will partially fulfill the famine, which is one of the most severe components of the catastrophic humanitarian situation experienced by Syrians in general and citizens of Aleppo in particular.
The target group is the most vulnerable group of the elderly, the disabled, the sick, the widows, the orphans and the poorest families. There is also a special food delivery service for the elderly who cannot come to collect their food.
In addition, this project will not only provide food, but it will also provide work for many women and men.
We passed the pilot phase of the project and started hard work accompanied by God’s blessings. We are satisfied with what our kitchen offers as it meets the approval of all beneficiaries and their families. The project is continuing well, and its center is the building opposite St. Francis Church
We thank all the friends who pray and support us spiritually with their prayers, morally with their encouragement and observations, and financially with their sacrifices
