When we come together, we have more power.
Partnering with God to end hunger requires us to organize ourselves for action. Whether we come together as churches, as campus groups, or with other people of good will, collective action makes a bigger impact than individual protest.
Throughout the Scriptures, God speaks of our purpose to rebuild, restore and renew all that is broken (Isaiah 61). We work to end the brokenness of hunger and poverty in our communities, in our country, and around the world. We partner in God’s work to lift the barriers that impede the flourishing God intended for all people.
"Our faith calls us to rebuild, restore, and renew all that is broken."
Isaiah 61
