“There is Freedom
in Forgiveness” i4give Day will take place
annually on the 1st of Feb READ MORE

About

Parents Daniel & Leila Abdallah have created i4give Day as a remembrance of the four angels that were tragically lost on the 1st of February 2020. This is to also help others who have suffered in a similar way. As well as this, it is a National day of forgiveness where you could find someone you can forgive or ask for forgiveness.

“Our four children are now our four saints and this day is for them. Forgiveness is the greatest gift you can give yourself and others. The more you practice the better you become at it and it allows you to live peacefully and to heal. Forgiveness is more for the forgiver than the forgiven” Danny & Leila Abdallah.

You are encouraged to search your heart and find someone you can forgive on this day. Set them free and feel the freedom of forgiveness.
Special thanks to the Federal and State Government for their support and endorsement of this day.

“Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you” Ephesians 4:32

In memory of our 4 angels

i4give Foundation

The i4give Foundation exists to increase community awareness of the power of forgiveness to transform human relationships and to provide resilience toward human flourishing. Forgiveness is at the root of human flourishing and provides a powerful source of resilience to overcome the impact of a wide range of trauma brought on through chronic unforgiveness. We are a Christ-centred Foundation that acknowledges the universal good of forgiveness that transcends all barriers and boundaries of race, nationality and creed. The power of forgiveness is for all. The Foundation is initiating i4give Week from 1 -7 February 2022, beginning the week with i4give Day and following with a week of locally initiated community run forgiveness events and concluding with i4give Sunday, a collaboration of Christian churches in Australia.

i4give Week

i4give Week is a week of forgiveness activities from 1-7 February 2022, commencing with i4give Day on 1 February. i4give Week 2022 seeks to engage all communities and across Australia in a shared embrace of the universal good of forgiveness.

Forgiveness

The greatest miracle is that there’s forgiveness for all that’s wrong with us. There’s forgiveness from all we’ve failed to live up to because of our inadequacies. There’s forgiveness from our wounds, from all that’s left us physically, emotionally, and spiritually limping and cold. There’s forgiveness from injustice, from the unfairness we suffer ourselves and from the hurt which we inflict knowingly or unknowingly on others. There’s forgiveness from our mistakes, our moral failures, our infidelities, our crimes, our sins. There’s forgiveness from relationships gone sour, from marriages, families, friendships, and institutions that have been torn apart by misunderstanding, hatred, selfishness, abuse, and violence. Nothing falls outside the scope of the power to forgive, to resurrect, restore, live with loss, grief and make new, fresh, innocent, and joyful again.

Our lives, to a greater or lesser extent, all end up incomplete, broken, unfairly ripped away from us, and causing hurt to others because of our weaknesses, infidelities, sin, and malice; and still, it can all wash clean again. There’s new life after all the ways we’ve gone wrong in this world. And that comes through forgiveness. There’s nothing more healing or miraculous, than a moment of reconciliation, a moment of forgiveness. Our hearts that are frozen and dead from disappointment, bitterness, anger, separation, and hatred can beat again.

In witnessing the warmth and love break through families who are not captive of a bitter and angry heart, we are seeing something that’s not just another instance of normal life, of ordinary unfolding. we are seeing newness, restoration, redemption, resurrection, forgiveness. Forgiveness is the most astonishing miracle we will ever see or experience this side of eternity. It, alone, makes for the possibility peace in our world.
