Responding with Food and Faith

When disaster hits an undeveloped nation — like the recent cyclone and flooding in Malawi — it puts already vulnerable people on the edge of life and death. Your quick and generous response helped Feed The Hungry church partners in Malawi distribute close to one million emergency food rations so far to children and families who lost their homes in the floods.

We managed to reach 255 houses in Chisamba and 325 households in Kaleso today. Near where their homes have been washed away they have made simple structures of bamboo and grass to put a roof over their heads and the heads of their children.

Being able to put life-saving food in the hands of the destitute opens the door to hope. Our Malawi relief teams have also been sharing Jesus face to face, through open air meetings and distributing Bibles.

Feed The Hungry Malawi staff and teams are still working hard to reach those displaced by the floods, and they’re doing a great job. Pray that we can continue to send them emergency food supplies and Gospel materials as affected communities pick up the pieces to rebuild.

Passing Khombwe to bring emergency food to new relief areas, we drove past a man with a Red Letter Gospel in his hand. He received it at one of our distribution sites and has read it every day since. He thanked us and God for the food that came to his family just in time, and joyfully testified, ‘I am a changed man!’”
