Secret Church

Day 14: Poverty Posted: 12 Mar 2012 11:00 PM PDT During this Secret Church on Good Friday, April 6, we are focusing our prayer time on the people of the Horn of Africa. Throughout the weeks leading up to Secret Church we will post information and prayer requests on this blog. We invite you to join us in learning about and praying for the people of the Horn. Photo Courtesy of the IMB Poverty defines the lasting images of Ethiopia, from the famines of the 1980s until now. Past mismanagement and droughts made Ethiopia dependent on hundreds of thousands of tons of food aid every year. This dependency continues, unbalancing the domestic economy and undermining local agriculture, and yet tens of thousands die annually of malnutrition. The careless application of aid can do more harm than good. Ways to Pray Pray for good rainy seasons and fruitful harvests that will provide adequate food supplies for the people of Ethiopia. Pray for wisdom for those determining how to grant financial and food assistance to those in need.
