Up to 500,000 residents of South Lebanon have been forced to flee to Beirut to avoid heavy bombing. Andrea Smith, a missionary teacher with Echoes International who is well known to Roger & Jill Pullan, is again organising essential food and some shelter for those without (see her email below). So far  £2914  has been donated towards her £9,000 target. If you can help, please see details given. (NB GoFund adds 16.5% service to gifts, so you can give via Echoes to avoid that.)
