Rescuing a Widow and<br />

ICC EMPOWERS WIDOWS FOR A BRIGHTER TOMORROW<br />
Egyptian Christians, especially those struggling with<br />
poverty, frequently experience pressure to convert<br />
to Islam from Muslim-majority neighbors. Christian<br />
widows are even more vulnerable to the external<br />
pressure to abandon their Christian faith and access<br />
the socioeconomic support that comes with converting<br />
to Islam.<br />
Nora’s husband was kidnapped by radical Muslims and<br />
killed because of his faith, leaving his wife and son<br />
without anyone to support them. ICC helped Nora start<br />
a grocery shop to help generate income for her family.<br />
ICC helps women like Nora to come alongside and<br />
support like family and persevere against pressures to<br />
convert.<br />

GIVE TO RESCUE: WIVES & KIDS<br />
“I don’t know why<br />
God allowed my<br />
husband to be<br />
killed. My husband<br />
was like an angel<br />
and never hurt<br />
anyone, and I loved<br />
him so much. But<br />
I trust God and his<br />
plan for my life as<br />
I lost my father at<br />
a very young age–I<br />
was 5 years old,<br />
and now my son is<br />
7 months old, and<br />
he lost his father<br />
too. Please pray for<br />
me and my son’s<br />
future.”<br />
