OUR MISSION

At the American Foundation for Relief and Reconciliation in the Middle East (American FRRME), we are dedicated to providing relief, aid and support to displaced and marginalized Christians. Our mission is to rebuild families and communities through ministerial programs that embody Christ’s love. We bring hope, help and healing to Christians in regions such as Baghdad, the Plains of Nineveh in Iraq and throughout Jordan.

Since 2009, we have partnered with churches and organizations rooted in faith and love to help Christians in the Middle East find renewed purpose and fresh beginnings after the devastation of their livelihoods.

Stories Of Hope

In 2014, Iraqi Christians faced severe persecution and were forced to flee their homes during the invasion of Iraq by the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS). The ISIS militant group targeted Christians, implementing a campaign of violence and oppression. Known as The Black Day, August 6, 2014, thousands of Christians chose to flee their homes and sought refuge in neighboring countries like Jordan due to its proximity and relative stability.

The Black Day was a day of misery for us and the worst day of my life. I will never forget the shouting, screaming, the chaos and the sounds of that day. I have been in Jordan for many years now. I miss my grandparents. I miss our streets. I miss our church. Most importantly, I miss my country. 

But God opened the way, leading us to Jordan. When we first came to Jordan, our days were extremely hard and difficult, but through the Olive Tree Center, we found assistance and unconditional love. Without your support of the center we would not have a safe and welcoming place for our Christian community.
