famine

11 million lives in need. 
Desperate because of
drought and conflict.


mother who has to walk for weeks
in harsh and dangerous terrain
to rescue her children.



A child in need of a cup of water

I can't stop thinking about this.
My heart is so burdened for these people who are in such dire need.
 I don't want to just be sad.
I want to be broken.
I want to act.

If you haven't read or seen what is going on in Somalia please get informed. 
There is so more loss than we could imagine.
As these precious souls flee their homeland, they are entering places open to the Truth and waiting with provision.
Let us not be silent and passive.

May His name be spread and lives be spared.


pray
take action
give sacrificially

He remains faithful forever, executing justice for the exploited and giving food to the hungry.
The Lord protects foreigners
and helps the fatherless
and the widow
Psalm 146:6,7,9
