Manuela - The Terror of ISIS
Barnabas Originals • 4m 38s
"Manuela - The terror of ISIS" is a moving short documentary following the journey of Manuela and her mother, Mariam; both Iraqi believers who escape the hostile presence of Islamic extremists. Fleeing to Jordan, they encounter the generosity of the churches who welcome them with open arms.
Despite their hardships, Manuela and Mariam's unwavering faith in God gives them strength to persevere and inspires 12-year-old Manuela to become a lawyer, to advocate for those suffering similar hardships. The film powerfully illustrates unity and compassion within the Christian community, encouraging believers to stand in solidarity with the wider family of faith.
