The Rescue of Gaza Christians mission is a testament to the American-born Otto Duke's unflinching commitment to evacuate Gaza Christians from famine-stricken based on the bible verses in pertinent parts: "Rescue the weak and needy; deliver them from the hands of the wicked." Psalm 82: 4. "Spirit of the Lord is on me because the Lord has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor, bind up the brokenhearted and to proclaim freedom for the captives." Isaiah 61:1
According to Otto, the arduous journey traveling from the Israel-Hamas Erez border crossing to Jabala refugee camp going towards Gaza City via Route 96 known by Gazans as the corridor of death will not deter him from organizing the evacuation of the Gaza Christians in collaboration with Gaza Baptist Pastor, Hana Massad. That being said, Otto is set to meet with the White House's Coordinator for the Middle East Brett McGuire; COGAT to coordinate activities on the ground and essential movement in an active combat zone.
