I am so thankful for the opportunity to return to Iraq! Many of you helped me get to Iraq in April of 2015 and prayed for me while I was there, THANK YOU! I greatly look forward to returning to the families living and working there, and coming alongside them in their work!

Hear The Cry has felt called into Iraq due to the turmoil and refugee situations. To a country that for the most part, nobody is going into. Jesus calls us into the places that everybody else is running away from . Our  tiny team desires to run into this beautiful historic country in the northern Kurdish region of Iraq to love like Jesus, work with the orphans and refugees, and to offer education.

We believe education is a major culture shaper in the future of a country when it comes to poverty alleviation, equality in education, and even the education around beliefs and religion.  This type of education is huge to opening doors of acceptance and mercy.  

On the ground, Billy Ray and his family have been living in northern Iraq for the past six years and have been working with the mayor on a community center school for skills training, english classes and Kurdish classes. This school is a game changer for the large refugee population there.

I would sure appreciate your support and prayers to enable me to get back into this land full of turmoil and tremendous opportunity. The door is WIDE open for loving these people with a love that does not know language barrier, nationality or culture...the love of JESUS! Please let me know if you would be willing to pray for this trip also!
