For the season of Lent, our church is doing a focus on the world hunger problem. We are doing a different approach to education this year. Each week we are choosing a country where world hunger continues to be a major issue and we will learn a little bit about the country. The most interesting part is we will share some typical meal recipes from that area for people to try during the week. We are also asking people to particularly remember that country in their prayers during that week. We are then asking people to make a donation to our national church body's world hunger program or another of their choosing.
The world hunger problem continues to be a major issue. Each day 1 in 7 people go hungry in the world. That is 925 million people. Although that statistic is down somewhat from ones I have seen in past years, this is still a huge problem. This is 925 million people too many. As I do the research over the next few weeks for our church's Lenten focus, I will share the information in my blog as well.
Take some time in the next few months to learn about the world hunger problem than make a donation to help stop world hunger to an organization or your choosing. Many hands make light work a huge problem.
