Thank you to all
who participated in
The 20th Anniversary
of Walk for the Hungry:
Hunger to Harvest!
|
|
The year 2001 marked the 20th anniversary of the Walk
for the Hungry. The theme for the walk was Hunger to Harvest.
Today the United Nations reports
that 830 million people (200 million children under the age of
5 years) are afflicted by hunger (New York Times, 01/009/01).
|
 |
|
On
April 7, 2001, we walked together to fight hunger...
Join
us next year on Saturday, March 23!
 |
As people of faith, we take seriously the words of
God revealed in James 2:12-17:
"What good is it
to profess faith without practicing it? Such faith has no power
to save one, has it? If a brother or sister has nothing to wear
and no food for the day, and you say to them, 'Good-bye and good
luck! Keep warm and well-fed,' but do meet their bodily needs,
what good is that? So it is with the faith that does nothing
in practice. It is thoroughly lifeless."
