Food for the Hungry embraces an intensely personal and biblical response to God’s call to end physical and spiritual hungers worldwide. This intentional walk with the poor mirrors God’s walk with each of us, recognizing our own brokenness and His transforming grace that brings out our God-given potential.

What does the walk look like? In short, it is coming alongside, helping and equipping:

Leaders: To solve problems in their community.

Churches: To meet the physical and spiritual needs in their community.

Families: To meet the physical and spiritual needs in their family.

  

Vision

 

This huge and staggering call from God is expressed well in Micah 6:8, a central passage that undergirds our walk with the poor.

“What does the Lord require of you but to do justice, love mercy,
and to walk humbly with your God.”

In response to His call, and compelled by the love of Christ, Food for the Hungry goes to the hard places – places darkened by poverty, war and injustice – to bring hope and help to children, families and communities in the most impoverished countries around the world.
