Express the Gospel of Jesus Christ through Community Investment
“…let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father.” – Jesus Christ Matthew 5:16 [NLT].
“But don’t just listen to God’s word. You must do what it says. Otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves. For if you listen to the word and don’t obey, it is like glancing at your face in a mirror. You see yourself, walk away, and forget what you look like. But if you look carefully into the perfect law that sets you free, and if you do what it says and don’t forget what you heard, then God will bless you for doing it.” James 1:22-25 [NLT].
EDUCATION
Access International School, founded in 2012, has helped transform Aley, Lebanon, and surrounding towns. The motto of the school is a BEAUTIFUL EDUCATION.
Education is beautiful when it produces love from a pure heart, clear conscience, and a sincere faith. This kind of education is well beyond stuffing heads with knowledge but requires nurture, character- building, wisdom, and love, in other words, transformed classrooms. Transformed classrooms impact the students, teachers, and staff. Ultimately, Beautiful Education transforms parents, families, and the entire community.
DEVELOPMENT
Middle Eastern men and women often have to migrate to Dubai, Europe, or elsewhere unless they can earn enough to stay in their own country. Our development projects help keep hard-working people in their home country, enabling them to build Jesus-centered communities wherever they are.
One dairy project is changing a village as its residents start making cheese and other dairy products. This financial blessing is giving them a taste of the love of Jesus Christ.
TRAINING
We are dedicated to a long-term holistic approach to training individuals and groups to be leaders. Our leadership training is Jesus-centered and covers four elements: Spiritual Formation, Character, Skills, and Experience.
We use formal classroom instruction combined with residential internships to inform, inspire, and equip adults for life-long service in transformed communities.
HUMANITARIAN AID
Skyrocketing unemployment has left families in Lebanon vulnerable to hunger and poor health. CBS Lebanon responds to the crisis in Lebanon by distributing food to those who need it and providing financial help to cover medical bills. Our Lebanon Fund assists communities in Mt. Lebanon and Beirut.
