Global Food Crisis
The global food crisis is real. I have seen it with my own eyes in urban centers and forgotten villages around the world. And the global food crisis is not simply about soaring prices and a shortage of food. It includes that, of course. But the global food crisis has a human face. Countless faces, actually, and if you stare into them, you cannot remain silent or inactive. If you hear their voices, they are not unlike an echo of the words of David in the Psalms. They cry out for help, for intervention. The voices are urgent.
And God has given His people eyes to see and ears to hear. And it is also God who calls His people to take action: to care and to respond. And that is what Food for the Hungry is doing.
One At A Time
As I walked through the doorway of a newly built adobe home that stands on the side of rubble-filled dirt roads in Chincha, Peru, I came face to face with two simple women who have experienced radical hope in the midst of a horrible tragedy.
Marisol Ochoa Omeda and Carmen Quispe live in the community of Salto De Liza in Chincha. One evening in August of last year, a big earthquake rocked this community and killed more than 600 people, mostly school children attending class when the roof collapsed on them.
