Have you looked at your Fall World Hunger Action Guide?

September 13, 2018 by NEIA Synod

A few weeks ago congregations should have received their ELCA World Hunger Fall Action Guide for Congregations.

This is a handy resource that belongs on your “Open right away” list.

This packet is a valuable collection of resources to tell the story of the work of the church in feeding the hungry. Nearly all the resources in this book are available online.  They aren’t all in the same place, and it can be time-consuming to find them, so we’ve assembled all the links to the resources in the packet in this post.

You can download the booklet here: ACTION GUIDE for Congregations
