Refugee Aid
Hundreds of refugees are seeking refuge in Jordan every day. Our Olive Tree Centres offer holistic care for everyone in need. We offer humanitarian aid, education, trauma support and a safe place to call home. We urgently need more funds to support the rising number of families in need of refugee aid this winter.

Fleeing Persecution and War
Eyad George's Story
Eyad is a 48 year old who fled Iraq with his family last October. His family had been persecuted for being Christian, in the wake of the war in Gaza, so they had no choice but to leave. Eyad who attends our Olive Tree Centre told us; "Father Bolus has helped us find accommodation, provided us with food coupons and psychological support. My children attend classes and I am learning English too. We feel we are part of a big family here. Every activity here is special the atmosphere and everything."
Adel Jerjes' Story
“Here I feel safe with my kids. So when my kids come here to the centre, we feel safe, like it’s our own home. There are things here you can’t find anywhere else, there’s love and a family atmosphere here. “
Aram's Story
“I’ve lived in Jordan for more than 8 years. I started coming to the church here and taking the courses such as music, where I learned to play the guitar which I love to play. I am now learning Arabic and I am seeing a huge difference in my skills.”
