Sarah works on the development and management of the Arab Baptist Theological Seminary’s library. Sarah has also been involved in ministries in a local prison where she ministers among the maids who are locked up there. She takes fresh fruits and vegetables to them and brings their letters to be mailed and also contacts their employers for assistance to bail them out of prison.

When the war broke out in mid-July, 2006, the Chettis were faced with the decision to stay in Beirut or to leave. After seeking guidance through prayer, the Chettis made the decision to remain in Lebanon despite bombs being dropped very close to where they were staying. While there, the Chettis were able to help the people in the area, receiving and distributing food and supplies for civilians and Lebanese natives.
