The hungry are of special concern to God for it is on their behalf God will ask us: “Did you feed me when I was hungry?” (Matt 25: 35-40)
The World Council of Churches ran a global day of prayer to end famine last year and are repeating the initiative through all participating churches in the world on 10 June this year.
The idea behind this is to unite ecumenical partners and faith communities all over the world as a prayerful and spiritual movement. Read the Moderator’s message to the Church.
