Do you ever wish that you could do more to tackle some of the big problems of our world? Southminster Presbyterian Church is very active in our local community to help prevent hunger. But…..what about beyond that? What about the larger problem of world hunger? Bread for the World is a Christian advocacy organization that is actively working to influence decision makers with the goal of ending world hunger.
David Gist, the western organizer of Bread For The World, will be visiting Boise, ID June 1- June 4. He will be at Southminster Presbyterian Church for worship on June 2 and he will be leading our adult education class after worship from 11 am – 12 noon. During this time he will talk about hunger and about things that Bread For The World is doing. It will be a great opportunity for us to find out how we can do more on a systems level to affect change in the world.
While Bread for the World is a new conversation partner for us at Southminster, we have been tangentially connected for many years! The PC(USA)’s Presbyterian Hunger Program, supported with donations from the One Great Hour of Sharing offering we receive each year, partners with Bread for the World in its work.
