A man carries his two children as he flees his home in Beirut, Lebanon, after it was hit by Israeli shells on June 24. Hundreds of thousands of men, women and children -- like these pictured above -- were displaced by the effects of the war. Episcopalians have the opportunity to join with fellow Christians around the world to come to the aid of the stricken Lebanese by contributing to Presiding Bishop John M. Allin's "Lebanon Special Appeal" through the Presiding Bishop's Fund for World Relief (815 Second Avenue, New York, NY 10017).
