Dear Friend,
In this edition of the Justice & Peace Focus newsletter, we lift up the voices of our Joining Hands networks and other international partners of the Presbyterian Hunger Program (PHP) who are working tirelessly to protect human rights and to improve the food security, livelihoods and health of communities and the environment.
Many of the featured articles celebrate the successes of our partners but also share heavy struggles, from famine to political and economic crises, that continue to affect their countries and communities.
These stories are a testament to the importance of gifts to One Great Hour of Sharing. Your gifts make it possible for PHP to accompany these grassroots groups and networks in the difficult work of alleviating hunger and eliminating its causes.
In love and gratitude,
Eileen Schuhmann Associate for Global Engagement and Resources Presbyterian Hunger Program |
Spreading the Vision of Matthew 25 across the Church |
The PC(USA) believes that we are called to serve Jesus by contributing to the well-being of the most vulnerable in all societies – rural and urban, small and large, young and not-so-young. From affordable housing to community gardens to equitable educational and employment opportunities to healing from addiction and mental illness to enacting policy change – there is not just one way to be a part of the Matthew 25 movement. |
