The Support Committee for Nathalie
Morin has created this site to support Nathalie and her children, Samir, Adbullah, Sarah and Fowaz. Nathalie has been in Saudi
Arabia since March 2005. Her 4 children, all Canadians, are under a travel ban from the Saudi government. Thus, Nathalie has no choice but to stay in this country until
her children can come with her to Canada.
On this site, you will find information on Nathalie’s story, her daily life, as well as the actions of the Committee aimed at bringing her back to Canada with her children.
A film recorded by Nathalie’s mother and brother in the summer of 2009 shows her daily life in Saudi Arabia.
This site shows you what action you can take, as a citizen, to help Nathalie and her children to come back to live among us.
Your support is precious and we are counting on you to help us in our actions.

Prayer written by Nathalie
On this day, November 30th, 2005, Lord, I ask pardon for all that I have done, for all my mistakes, for not having listened to you... Lord, I ask for grace and for your blessing. Confer on me a place in heaven. I wish to repent before you, Lord.
Lord, bless my mother with all your might, confer the benediction.
Lord, make it so that one day, I may go back to Canada, with my children, for the good of my children.
Amen.
