Umm Abanoub is a humble woman who spent her life at home, caring for her children, yet lived under the weight of debilitating fear. She feared death and worried constantly for her children. She was filled with anxiety, expecting the worst in every situation. Feeling overwhelmed, she decided to attend a Transformational Community Development (TCD) group, where the lesson was about overcoming fear. She realized that fear doesn’t protect anyone and that her anxiety was stealing her peace and joy. For the first time, she faced herself and understood that she needed to let go of fear to truly live. From that day, Umm Abanoub’s life began to change. She calmed herself when fear arose, laughed more with her children, and enjoyed her time. She even shared what she learned to help others, stepping into a new journey filled with peace, reassurance, and courage.
