Seeing family members killed right in front of him, spending months on the run, ending up in an orphanage—this was Alex’s life after the Rwandan genocide began. Yet, despite all this hardship, Alex can look back and see the miracles of God throughout his life. And when Alex received an Operation Christmas Child shoebox gift, a seed of hope was planted that would later bloom into a deep love for the Lord. Hear about the miracles of God in Alex’s story and how the power of forgiveness set him free.

Jim Dailey, vice president of communications at Samaritan’s Purse, spoke with Kristy Graham about how he has witnessed God’s sovereign, providential hand throughout his 25 years of working in the ministry. Jim shared about perseverance in times of trial, and what it has been like taking the Gospel to the ends of the earth.

In Tigray—a region of Ethiopia once ravaged by conflict—God is using Samaritan’s Purse to equip local churches to change lives, mend hearts, and restore hope in Jesus’ Name. Meeting the vulnerable where they are and addressing physical and spiritual needs, we are together pouring into the next generation—a generation whose childhood was stripped away. By creating safe havens, these kids are able to play, laugh, and learn about how there is a God who cares for them.
