BETTER FRIENDS THAN MOUNTAINS
“THE KURDS HAVE NO FRIENDS BUT THE MOUNTAINS.”
- KURDISH PROVERB -
There are approximately 31 million Kurds spread across 13 countries in and around “the cradle of civilization.” They constitute the world's largest stateless people and remain one of the most unreached and unengaged people groups on earth. This scorned and marginalized people may very well be the ripest harvest field in the Muslim world.
The power vacuum left by ISIS in Iraq and Kurdistan will bring a no less long and arduous road than the one to eradicate them from these territories. We are committed to mourning with these people through their losses, and moving forward with them into their futures.
IRAQI KURDISTAN IS A HARVEST FIELD READY FOR THE SICKLE
If you are on social media, help spread the word by sharing the film with the hashtag #BetterFriendsThanMountains. We are making it free because we want as many people as possible to see it. By the end of the film, we trust you will understand why.
At this critical juncture in history, as the battle for the destiny of the Middle East rages on, it is imperative that the Church in the nations understands what is happening in the region and how the Lord would have us offer ourselves as living sacrifices on the altar of His will in the days ahead.

OCTOBER-DECEMBER 2016
THE MOSUL CAMPAIGN
Volume I highlights the Gospel opportunities presented by the scourge of Daesh across northern Iraq. Just months after the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) sacked Raqqa, Fallujah, and Mosul, FAI Relief teams began to explore how the doors were opening to bring the name and news of King Jesus to both victims and bloodthirsty men. What we discovered was nearly beyond our own belief.

Volume II explores the opportunities for a tangible witness of Jesus and the work of FAI Relief before, during, and after the campaign to liberate Mosul from the clutches of ISIS. Follow our team and get a first-hand look at what is means to give an incarnate witness of the Incarnate God amidst bloodthirsty conflict and carnage. The power vacuum left by ISIS in Iraq and Kurdistan will bring a no less long and arduous road than the one to eradicate them from these territories. We are committed to mourning with these people through their losses, and moving forward with them into their futures.
