Alawite People of Syria

Overview: In January of 2004 LBC signed an agreement with field personnel to try and reach the Alawite people of Syria. The Alawites are a Muslim group of about 1.5 million people who are totally unreached. They are considered outcasts or liberal by many of the more prominent Muslim groups in Syria and Lebanon. Yet by law they are leaders in the government.

They are very open to westerners, which makes this a prime candidate for us to focus upon.

Mission Statement: Liberty desires to do all that is within our power to help see a CPM begin among the Alawites of Syria.

Goal: To partner with the field personnel for a period of 3 years to help implement a strategy that results in a CPM among the Alawites of Syria and mobilization of churches in the USA.

Team Leader: David Smith

Activities: Some of the things that the team is currently reviewing are:

1. Prayer Networks

2. Trips to cast vision for others among this people group

3. Stateside Alawite conference
