Hunger Alleviation
Among the poorest families, especially among the AIDS widows, hunger waxes and wanes depending on the season and harvests.
To help we conduct a food pantry night at our project in Mozambique. During the evening we share the Gospel and hand out sacks of rice, beans, oil and corn meal.
In India, we distribute bags of rice in Christ’s name in the villages within the Deep Forest and at the Rock Quarry in Rajahmundry. Our project leader writes:
Our people have a strong faith in their Hindu gods. It is difficult to explain that Jesus Christ is the only living God. To get their attention we have started handing out bags of rice. They admitted that never had they received this type of support from anyone. I explained that this gift of rice was very little compared to how our Living God Jesus Christ could help them in their lives. Some have started to ask, “Who is this Jesus? Where does he live? How can he be a living God?” These people’s hearts are hard like the rock that they break, but because of the rice Christ’s name is known.
You can help provide food to children in Mozambique and India here.
