GEORGES HOUSSNEY

Called to Love Muslims

Raised in the predominantly Muslim city of Tripoli, Lebanon, Georges Houssney came to faith in Jesus as a teenager, experiencing a profound transformation.

This move marked a transition in his ministry, expanding his reach to diverse people seeking education and a better life in the United States.
