في تشرين الأول 1990، في آخر أيام الحرب اللبنانية، أوقف جنود سوريون مسلحون عائلة روزيت منصور وأمروها بالوقوف أمام جدار، كما روت لـ«بابتيست برس»، وكانت حاملاً وتحمل طفلها. أطلقت دبابة لبنانية النار على الجنود فنجت العائلة.

عانت سنوات لتسامح، فصلّت وصامت كل جمعة، ثم خدمت اللاجئين السوريين في بيروت. وتقول: «بخدمة أعدائي لم يعد لي أعداء». وهي تعمل اليوم مع «Middle East Bible Outreach» في الولايات المتحدة.
