En octobre 1990, au dernier jour de la guerre civile, des soldats syriens armés ont plaqué la famille de Rosette Mansour contre un mur, raconte-t-elle à Baptist Press. Enceinte, elle tenait son fils de neuf mois. Un char libanais a tiré sur les soldats et la famille a été épargnée.

Après des années de prière et de jeûne, elle a servi des réfugiés syriens à Beyrouth. « En servant mes ennemis, je n'ai plus d'ennemis », dit-elle. Elle travaille aujourd'hui pour Middle East Bible Outreach aux États-Unis.
